Quasilinear hemivariational inequalities with strong resonance at infinity. (Q1427925)

The paper deals with a quasilinear hemivariational inequality formulated on a bounded domain where the negative \(p\)-Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary condition, its first eigenvalue and a multivalued term expressed as a generalized gradient of a locally Lipschitz function enter the problem. The authors precise that their assumptions allow resonance at infinity. The main result provides the existence of a nontrivial solution. Under more restrictive assumptions, the authors remark that there exist at least two nontrivial solutions. The approach relies on the critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals with the nonsmooth Cerami condition.
