Abstract

We study positive solutions to the steady state reaction diffusion systems of the form: \begin{equation} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u = \lambda f(v)+\mu h(u), & \Omega,\\ -\Delta v = \lambda g(u)+\mu q(v),& \Omega,\\ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta}+\sqrt[]{\lambda +\mu}\, u=0,& \partial\Omega,\\ \frac{\partial v}{\partial \eta}+\sqrt[]{\lambda +\mu}\, v=0, & \partial\Omega,\\ \end{array}\right. \end{equation} where λ,μ>0{\lambda,\mu>0} are positive parameters, Ω{\Omega} is a bounded in RN\mathbb{R}^{N}(N>1)(N>1) with smooth boundary Ω{\partial \Omega}, or Ω=(0,1){\Omega=(0,1)}, zη{ \frac{\partial z}{\partial \eta} } is the outward normal derivative of zz. Here f,g,h,qC2[0,r)C[0,)f, g, h, q\in C^{2} [0,r)\cap C[0,\infty) for some r>0r>0. Further, we assume that f,g,hf, g, h and qq are increasing functions such that f(0)=g(0)=h(0)=q(0)=0f(0) = g(0) = h(0) = {q}(0) = 0, f(0),g(0),h(0),q(0)>0f^\prime(0), g^\prime(0), h^\prime(0), q^\prime(0) > 0, and limsf(Mg(s))s=0\lim\limits_{s\to \infty}\frac{f(M g(s))}{s}=0 for all M>0M>0. Under certain additional assumptions on f,g,hf, g, h and q q we prove our existence and multiplicity results. Our existence and multiplicity results are proved using sub-super solution methods.
