Abstract
We prove the existence and the multiplicity of positive solutions of the one-dimensional capillarity-type problemâ(uâ²/1+(uâ²)2)â²=a(x)f(u),uâ²(0)=0,uâ²(1)=0, where aâL1(0,1) changes sign and f:[0,+â)â[0,+â) is continuous and has a power-like behavior at the origin and at infinity. Our approach is variational and relies on a regularization procedure that yields bounded variation solutions which are of class Wloc2,1, and hence satisfy the equation pointwise almost everywhere, on each open interval where the weight function a has a constant sign.
