Bifurcation from infinity with oscillatory nonlinearity for Neumann problems

Maya Chhetri, Nsoki Mavinga, Rosa Pardo

Abstract:
We consider a sublinear perturbation of an elliptic eigenvalue problem with Neumann boundary condition. We give sufficient conditions on the nonlinear perturbation which guarantee that the unbounded continuum, bifurcating from infinity at the first eigenvalue, contains an unbounded sequence of turning points as well as an unbounded sequence of resonant solutions. We prove our result by using bifurcation theory combined with a careful analysis of the oscillatory behavior of the continuum near the bifurcation point.
