Abstract

In Chap. 10, we obtain nontrivial solutions of a class of nonlocal quasilinear elliptic boundary value problems using the Yang index and critical groups, and we obtain sign-changing solutions of a class of nonlocal quasilinear elliptic boundary value problems using variational methods and invariant sets of descent flows. We also show a uniqueness result.
