Semilinear Robin problems driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite potential

Abstract

We study a semilinear Robin problem driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite potential. We consider the case where the reaction term f is a Carathéodory function exhibiting linear growth near ±∞. So, we establish the existence of at least two solutions, by using the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method together with variational tools.
