Bifurcation of radial solutions for prescribed mean curvature equations

N. B. Zographopoulos

Abstract

We prove global bifurcation results for prescribed mean curvature equations. These equations are defined on R3 and the radial solutions belonging in these branches are smooth and positive.

Key Result

THEOREM 1.1

Assume that $X$ is a Banach space with norm $||\cdot||$ and consider $G(\lambda,\cdot)= L(\lambda,\cdot) + H(\lambda,\cdot)$, where $L$ is a compact linear map on $X$ and $H(\lambda,\cdot)$ is compact and satisfies If $\lambda$ is a simple eigenvalue of $L$ then the closure of the set possesses a maximal continuum (i.e. connected branch) of solutions, $\mathcal{C}_\lambda$, such that $(\lambda,0
