Semilinear equations in Hilbert spaces with quasi-positive nonlinearity. (English) Zbl 1027.47044

Summary: The problem is to show that \(Ax+F(x)=0\) has a solution, where \(A\) is linear, maximal monotone, and the linearity \(F\) is a quasi-positive operator of Leray-Schauder type. The existence result is obtained as a consequence of the properties of the Leray-Schauder degree. Finally, some applications are given.
