Abstract:

We establish a unilateral global bifurcation result from interval for a class of fourth-order problems with nondifferentiable nonlinearity. By applying the above result, we firstly establish the spectrum for a class of half-linear fourth-order eigenvalue problems. Moreover, we also investigate the existence of nodal solutions for the following half-linear fourth-order problems: , , , where is a parameter, , , , , and , for . We give the intervals for the parameter which ensure the existence of nodal solutions for the above fourth-order half-linear problems if or where and . We use the unilateral global bifurcation techniques and the approximation of connected components to prove our main results.
