Abstract: We consider the nonlinear stationary Schr"odinger equation �egin{equation*} -Delta u -lambda u= Q(x)|u|^{p-2}u, qquad ext{in }mathbb{R}^N end{equation*} in the case where $Ngeq3$, $p$ is a superlinear, subcritical exponent, $Q$ is a bounded, nonnegative and nontrivial weight function with compact support in $mathbb{R}^N$ and $lambdainmathbbR$ is a parameter. Under further restrictions either on the exponent $p$ or on the shape of $Q$, we establish the existence of a continuous branch $mathcalC$ of nontrivial solutions to this equation which intersects $lambdaimes{L}^s(mathbb{R}^N)$ for every $lambdain(-infty,lambd{a}_Q)$ and $s>frac2NN-1$. Here $lambd{a}_Q>0$ is an explicit positive constant which only depends on $N$ and $extdiam(extsuppQ)$. In particular, the set of values $lambda$ along the branch enters the essential spectrum of the operator $-Delta$.
