Abstract

In this paper, we prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded domains ΩRn+1,n1\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1},n\geq1, bifurcating from the straight cylinder B×RB\times\mathbb{R} (where BB is the unit ball of Rn\mathbb{R}^n), such that the overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \Delta u +f(u)=0 &\mbox{in Ω\Omega, } u=0 &\mbox{on Ω\partial\Omega, } \partial_{\nu} u=\mbox{constant} &\mbox{on Ω\partial\Omega, } \end{cases} \end{equation*} has a positive bounded solution. We will prove such result for a very general class of functions f:[0,+)Rf: [0, +\infty) \to \mathbb{R}. Roughly speaking, we only ask that the Dirichlet problem in BB admits a nondegenerate solution. The proof uses a local bifurcation argument.
