The mountain pass theorem : variants, generalizations and some applications /

This book presents min-max methods through a comprehensive study of the different faces of the celebrated Mountain Pass Theorem (MPT) of Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz. The coverage includes standard topics: the classical and dual MPT; second-order information from PS sequences; symmetry and topological...
