Abstract.
We consider a semilinear Robin problem with an indefinite and unbounded potential and a reaction which exhibits asymmetric behavior as $x\rightarrow\pm\infty$. More precisely it is sublinear near $-\infty$ with possible resonance with respect to the principal eigenvalue of the negative Robin Laplacian and it is superlinear at $+\infty$. Resonance is also allowed at zero with respect to any nonprincipal eigenvalue. We prove two multiplicity results. In the first one, we obtain two nontrivial solutions and in the second, under stronger regularity conditions on the reaction, we produce three nontrivial solutions. Our work generalizes the recent one by Recova-Rumbos (Nonlin. Anal. 112 (2015), 181--198).
