Notes:

We construct an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ on which an eigenvalue problem for the $p-$Laplacian has not isolated first eigenvalue and the spectrum is not discrete. The same example shows that the usual Lusternik-Schnirelmann minimax construction does not exhaust the whole spectrum of this eigenvalue problem.


Keywords: p-Laplacian, Nonlinear eigenvalue problems, Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory
