Dirichlet problems with singular and superlinear terms

Abstract

We consider a parametric nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by the p-Laplacian, with a singular term and a p-superlinear perturbation, which need not satisfy the usual Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition. Using variational methods together with truncation techniques, we prove a bifurcation-type theorem describing the behaviour of the set of positive solutions as the parameter varies.
