Generalized Fountain Theorem and applications to strongly indefinite semilinear problems (Q2257136)

The authors establish an infinite dimensional version of the Fountain Theorem which employs linking arguments to establish the existence of critical points for functionals defined on a Hilbert space. The abstract result is then applied to noncooperative elliptic systems \[ \begin{cases} \Delta u = H_u(x, u, v) & \text{ in } \Omega\\ -\Delta v = H_v(x, u, v) & \text{ in } \Omega\\ u = v = 0 & \text{ on } \partial\Omega \end{cases} \] where \(\Omega\) is an open bounded subset of \(\mathbb{R}^N\).
