Abstract
In this paper, we investigate numerically sign-changing solutions of superlinear elliptic equations on symmetric domains. Based upon the symmetric criticality principle of Palais, the existence of sign-changing solutions which reflect the symmetry of Ω is studied first. A simple numerical algorithm, the modified mountain pass algorithm, is then proposed to compute the sign-changing solutions. This algorithm is discussed and compared with the high-linking algorithm for sign-changing solutions developed by Ding et al. [Nonlinear Anal. 37 (1999) 151–172]. By implementing both algorithms on several numerical examples, the sign-changing solutions and their nodal curves are displayed and discussed.
