โฆ Synopsis
Let (\Omega) be a smooth bounded domain of (\mathbb{R}^{n}, n \geqslant 3), and let (a(x)) and (f(x)) be two smooth functions defined on a neighbourhood of (\Omega). First we study the existence of nodal solutions for the equation (\Delta u+a(x) u=f(x)|u|^{4 /(n-2)} u) on (\Omega, u=0) on (\partial \Omega). In particular, when (\Omega) is a solid torus of (\mathbb{R}^{3}), we describe three infinity (of pairs) of solutions of the equation (\Delta u=|u|^{4 / n-2)} u) on (\Omega, u=0) on (\partial \Omega). Afterwards, we study the equation when the zero Dirichlet condition on the boundary is replaced by a non-zero Dirichlet condition. 1994 Academic Press. Inc.

The elliptic equation \(\Delta u+f(u)=0\) in \(R^{n}\) is discussed in the case where \(f(u)=\) \(|u|^{n} \quad u(|u| \geqslant 1),=|u|^{4} \quad{ }^{1} u(|u|<1), 10\). It is further proved that for any \(k \geqslant 0\) there exist at least three radially symmetric solutions which have exactly \(k\
The existence and multiplicity results are obtained for solutions of a class of the Dirichlet problem for semilinear elliptic equations by the least action principle and the minimax methods, respectively.
