On a singular nonlinear Dirichlet problem. (English) Zbl 0692.35047

The authors are studying the existence of positive solutions of the semilinear equation \(\Delta u+g(x,u)+h(x,\lambda u)=0,\) with zero boundary data, in a boundary smooth domain in \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\). Here, \(\lambda\) is a positive bifurcation parameter. It is assumed that the functions g(x,u) and h(x,\(\lambda\) u) satisfy some conditions so that they resemble the behaviour of \(u^{-\alpha}\), \(\alpha >0\) and \((\lambda u)^ p\), \(p>0\) respectively. The authors proves existence/nonexistence results depending on the parameter \(\lambda\). The use upper and lower solution techniques.
