Radial solutions of Dirichlet problems with concave–convex nonlinearities Original Research Article

We prove the existence of a double infinite sequence of radial solutions for a Dirichlet concave–convex problem associated with an elliptic equation in a ball of RnRn. We are interested in relaxing the classical positivity condition on the weights, by allowing the weights to vanish. The idea is to develop a topological method and to use the concept of rotation number. The solutions are characterized by their nodal properties.
