Three solutions of a quasilinear elliptic problem near resonance. (English) Zbl 0958.35052
Using critical point theory, the authors prove a multiplicity result near the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ for quasilinear elliptic problems of the form $$-\Delta_pu-\lambda_1|u|^{p-2}u+\varepsilon |u|^{p-2}u=f(x,u)+h(x)$$ with Dirichlet conditions. It is proved that, for sufficiently small $\varepsilon >0$, the problem above has at least three solutions when $f$ and $h$ satisfy a Landesman-Lazer condition.
