On bifurcation from infinity for potential operators

From MaRDI portal
(Redirected from Publication:1176205)





The authors consider the equation (1) \(Lu+G(u)=\lambda u\) where \(L\) is a bounded linear selfadjoint operator on the Hilbert space \(X\) and \(G\in C(\Omega,X)\) is of potential type. They are concerned with solutions of equation (1) which bifurcate from infinity: more precisely \((\mu,\infty)\) is a bifurcation point from infinity if, for any \(\varepsilon>0\) and \(M>0\), there exists a solution \((\lambda,u)\) such that \(| \lambda- \mu|<\varepsilon\) and \(\| u\|>M\). The aim of this paper is to prove that under some conditions the parameter values of \(\lambda\) of solutions bifurcating from \((\mu,\infty)\) cover at a least one-sided neighborhood of \(\mu\) provided there are no solutions of equation \((1)_ \mu\) tending towards infinity, where \((1)_ \mu\) is equation (1) with \(\lambda=\mu\).
