Abstract: We examine equations of the form {eqnarray*} {{array}{lcl} hfill HA u &=& lambda g(x) f(u) qquad ext{in} Omega hfill u&=& 0 qquad qquad qquad ext{on} pOm, {array}. {eqnarray*} where lambda>0 is a parameter and Omega is a smooth bounded domain in IRN, Nge2. Here g is a positive function and f is an increasing, convex function with f(0)=1 and either f blows up at 1 or f is superlinear at infinity. We show that the extremal solution u associated with the extremal parameter lambda is the unique solution. We also show that when f is suitably supercritical and Omega satisfies certain geometrical conditions then there is a unique solution for small positive lambda.
