Infinitely many Solutions of Semi-Linear Elliptic Equation with a Logarithmic Nonlinear Term

Article Preview

Abstract:

The semi-linear elliptic equation is an important model in Mathematic, Physics. In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem of semi-linear elliptic equation with a logarithmic nonlinear term. By using the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, mountain pass theorem and perturbation theorem, we obtain infinitely many nontrivial weak solutions, and also the energy of the solution is positive.
