Perturbed Hammerstein integral inclusions with solutions that change sign

Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 50,4 (2009) 591-605.

Abstract:We establish new existence results for nontrivial solutions of some integral inclusions of Hammerstein type, that are perturbed with an affine functional. In order to use a theory of fixed point index for multivalued mappings, we work in a cone of continuous functions that are positive on a suitable subinterval of $[0,1]$. We also discuss the optimality of some constants that occur in our theory. We improve, complement and extend previous results in the literature.

Keywords: fixed point index, cone, nontrivial solution
