Abstract: We study the existence of solutions of the Dirichlet problem {gather} -phi_p(u')' -a_+ phi_p(u^+) + a_- phi_p(u^-) -lambda phi_p(u) = f(x,u), quad x in (0,1), label{pb.eq} ag{1} u(0)=u(1)=0,label{pb_bc.eq} ag{2} {gather} where p>1, phip(s):=|s|p1sgns for sinmathbbR, the coefficients apminC0[0,1], lambdainmathbbR, and upm:=maxpmu,0. We suppose that finC1([0,1]imesmathbbR) and that there exists fpminC0[0,1] such that limxiopminftyf(x,xi)=fpm(x), for all xin[0,1]. With these conditions the problem eqref{pb.eq}-eqref{pb_bc.eq} is said to have a `jumping nonlinearity'. We also suppose that the problem {gather} -phi_p(u')' = a_+ phi_p(u^+) - a_- phi_p(u^-) + lambda phi_p(u) quad ext{on} (0,1), ag{3} label{heval_pb.eq} {gather} together with eqref{pb_bc.eq}, has a non-trivial solution u. That is, lambda is a `half-eigenvalue' of eqref{pb_bc.eq}-eqref{heval_pb.eq}, and the problem eqref{pb.eq}-eqref{pb_bc.eq} is said to be `resonant'. Combining a shooting method with so called `Landesman-Lazer' conditions, we show that the problem eqref{pb.eq}-eqref{pb_bc.eq} has a solution. Most previous existence results for jumping nonlinearity problems at resonance have considered the case where the coefficients apm are constants, and the resonance has been at a point in the `Fucik spectrum'. Even in this constant coefficient case our result extends previous results. In particular, previous variational approaches have required strong conditions on the location of the resonant point, whereas our result applies to any point in the Fucik spectrum.
