We consider the following problem:wherefor x ∈ RN, f(x, t), ft (x, t) ∈ C(RN × R), and f (x, t) ≧ 0 for all x ∈ RN and t ∈ R+, f(x, t) is an odd function of t. We show that if the maximum of Q(x) is achieved at k different points of RN, then for μ large enough the above problem has at least k positive solutions and k nodal solutions.
