Semilinear systems with a multi-valued nonlinear term

Introducing a topological degree theory, we first establish some existence results for the inclusion h ∈ Lu − Nu in the nonresonance and resonance cases, where L is a closed densely defined linear operator on a Hilbert space with a compact resolvent and N is a nonlinear multi-valued operator of mono...

Description
Summary:Introducing a topological degree theory, we first establish some existence results for the inclusion h ∈ Lu − Nu in the nonresonance and resonance cases, where L is a closed densely defined linear operator on a Hilbert space with a compact resolvent and N is a nonlinear multi-valued operator of monotone type. Using the nonresonance result, we next show that abstract semilinear system has a solution under certain conditions on N = (N1, N2), provided that L = (L1, L2) satisfies dim Ker L1 = ∞ and dim Ker L2 < ∞. As an application, periodic Dirichlet problems for the system involving the wave operator and a discontinuous nonlinear term are discussed.
