Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0728.00011.] The author is concerned with the results that can be obtained if some of the hypotheses used by A. Ambrosetti and P. H. Rabinowitz in their minimax approach to the semilinear elliptic boundary value problems are dropped out. The results express essentially an alternative between the existence of solutions to the semilinear equation and to an associated eigenvalue problem. The argument is based on a bounded mountain pass theorem.
