Abstract

In the setting of saddle point reduction, we prove that the critical groups of the original functional and the reduced functional are isomorphic. As application, we obtain two nontrivial solutions for elliptic gradient systems which may be resonant both at the origin and at infinity. The difficulty that the variational functional does not satisfy the Palais–Smale condition is overcame by taking advantage of saddle point reduction. Our abstract results on critical groups are crucial.
