Abstract: We consider the boundary value problem �egin{equation} - Delta u = lambda c(x)u+ mu(x) | abla u|^2 + h(x), qquad u in H^1_0(Omega) cap L^{infty}(Omega), leqno{(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 $p>N$. Also $muin{L}^{infty}(Omega)$ and $mugeqm{u}_1>0$ for some $m{u}_{1}inR$. It is known that when $lambdaleq0$, problem $(P_{lambda})$ has at most one solution. In this paper we study, under various assumptions, the structure of the set of solutions of $(P_{lambda})$ assuming that $lambda>0$. Our study unveils the rich structure of this problem. We show, in particular, that what happen for $lambda=0$ influences the set of solutions in all the half-space $]0,+infty[imes(H_0^1(Omega)cap{L}^{infty}(Omega))$. Most of our results are valid without assuming that $h$ has a sign. If we require $h$ to have a sign, we observe that the set of solutions differs completely for $hgneqq0$ and $hlneqq0$. We also show when $h$ has a sign that solutions not having this sign may exists. Some uniqueness results of signed solutions are also derived. The paper ends with a list of open problems.
