Abstract: We study the following boundary value problem with a concave-convex nonlinearity: �egin{equation*} left{ �egin{array}{r c l l} -Delta_p u & = & Lambda,u^{q-1}+ u^{r-1} & extrm{in }Omega, \ u & = & 0 & extrm{on }partialOmega. end{array} ight. end{equation*} Here OmegasubsetmathbbRn is a bounded domain and 1<q<p<r<p. It is well known that there exists a number Lambdaq,r>0 such that the problem admits at least two positive solutions for 0<Lambda<Lambdaq,r, at least one positive solution for Lambda=Lambdaq,r, and no positive solution for Lambda>Lambdaq,r. We show that [ lim_{q o p} Lambda_{q,r} = lambda_1(p), ] where lambda1(p) is the first eigenvalue of the p-laplacian. It is worth noticing that lambda1(p) is the threshold for existence/nonexistence of positive solutions to the above problem in the limit case q=p.
