Abstract

It is well-known that many problems of quantum mechanics and chemical physics etc. can be described by eigenvalue equations involving scalar nonlinearities of the form

$$g\left\{ {\frac{1}{2}\left\langle {Bu,u} \right\rangle } \right\}Bu = \lambda ,\left( {\lambda ,u} \right) \in R \times X$$
