Singular points of non-monotone potential operators

Abstract

In this paper, we establish some results about the singular points of certain non-monotone potential operators. Here is a sample: If XX is an infinite-dimensional reflexive real Banach space and if T:XXT:X\to X^* is a non-monotone, closed, continuous potential operator such that the functional x01T(sx)(x)dsx\to \int_0^1T(sx)(x)ds is sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous and limx+(01T(sx)(x)ds+φ(x))=+\lim_{\|x\|\to +\infty}(\int_0^1T(sx)(x)ds+\varphi(x))=+\infty for all φX\varphi\in X^*, then the set of all singular points of TT is not σ\sigma-compact.
