Abstract

We consider nonlinear elliptic equations driven by the p-Laplacian with a nonsmooth potential (hemivariational inequalities). We obtain the existence of multiple nontrivial solutions and we determine their sign (one positive, one negative and the third nodal). Our approach uses nonsmooth critical point theory coupled with the method of upper-lower solutions.
