Abstract:

We give the precise behaviour of some solutions of a nonlinear elliptic B.V.P. in a bounded domain when a parameter approaches an eigenvalue of the principal part. If the nonlinearity has some regularity and the domain is for example convex, we also prove a nonlinear version of Courant's Nodal Theorem.

Keywords: eigenvalues, $L^\infty-H_0^1$ estimate, nodal lines, symmetries
