Abstract

We study the degenerate elliptic equation -div(|x|α∇u) = ƒ(u) + tφ(x) + h(x) in a bounded open set Ω with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition, where α ∈ (0, 2) and ƒ has a linear growth. The main result establishes the existence of real numbers t* and t* such that the problem has at least two solutions if t ≤ t*, there is at least one solution if t* < t ≤ t*, and no solution exists for all t > t*. The proof combines a priori estimates with topological degree arguments.
