Abstract: We consider the boundary value problem �egin{equation*} - Delta u = lambda c(x)u+ mu(x) | abla u|^2 + h(x), quad u in H^1_0(Omega) cap L^{infty}(Omega) eqno{(P_{lambda})} end{equation*} where $Omegasubset{R}^N,Ngeq3$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary. It is assumed that $cgneqq0$, $c,h$ belong to $L^p(Omega)$ for some $p>N/2$ and that $muin{L}^{infty}(Omega).$ We explicit a condition which guarantees the existence of a unique solution of $(P_{lambda})$ when $lambda<0$ and we show that these solutions belong to a continuum. The behaviour of the continuum depends in an essential way on the existence of a solution of $(P_0)$. It crosses the axis $lambda=0$ if $(P_0)$ has a solution, otherwise if bifurcates from infinity at the left of the axis $lambda=0$. Assuming that $(P_0)$ has a solution and strenghtening our assumptions to $mu(x)geqm{u}_1>0$ and $hgneqq0$, we show that the continuum bifurcates from infinity on the right of the axis $lambda=0$ and this implies, in particular, the existence of two solutions for any $lambda>0$ sufficiently small.
