Abstract

A mountain pass lemma without the Palais–Smale condition on a closed convex subset of a Banach space is established. Then, we apply it to a semilinear elliptic partial differential equation to obtain one negative solution and a positive solution. Hence we generalize an early result of K. C. Chang and L. Nirenberg.
