This article covers the extension of bifurcation results given in [\textit{K.-C. Chang, Z.-Q. Wang}, J. Fixed Point Theory Appl. 1, No. 2, 195--208 (2007; Zbl 1139.58008)] to the case of strongly indefinite functionals, i.e., where positive and negative eigenspaces of the second differential at the bifurcation point are infinite dimensional. Consider functionals \[ f_\lambda:=\frac12((A+B)u,u)-\frac12\lambda(Ju,u)+g(u) \] defined on a real Hilbert space \(H\). Here \(\lambda\) is a real parameter, \((\cdot,\cdot)\) denotes the inner product, \(A\), \(B\) and \(J\) denote linear, bounded self-adjoint operators in \(H\), \(B\) is compact, and \(g: H\to\mathbb{R}\) is differentiable and such that \(G:=g'\) gives a Lipschitz continuous compact nonlinear operator that satisfies \(G(u)=o(\left\| u\right\|)\) as \(u\to0\). In earlier work [Nonlinear Anal., Theory Methods Appl. 48, No. 6(A), 831--851 (2002; Zbl 1013.37023)] the authors define critical groups and a degree theory for dynamically isolated critical sets of the negative pseudogradient flow generated by \(f_\lambda\), via a Galerkin approximation scheme. Using these notions and employing the Maslov index of \(B\) with respect to \(A\) they formulate two abstract theorems stating the existence of bifurcation from \(0\) and from \(\infty\) under conditions on the critical groups and indices of critical sets. These theorems are applied to a periodic Hamiltonian system and to a non-cooperative elliptic system.
