Title: Positive solutions to a Dirichlet problem with non-Lipschitz nonlinearities Author: Giovanni Anello (Univ. of Messina, Italy) Abstract: Let Ω be a bounded smooth domain in RN<'sup>. We study the existence of positive solutions to the Dirichlet problem $$\displaylines{ -\Delta u=(1-u)u^{s-1}-\lambda u^{r-1}, \quad\text{in } \Omega,\cr u=0, \quad \text{on } \partial\Omega, }$$ where 1<r<s≤2, and λ>0. In particular, we answer to some questions posed in the recent paper [3] where this problem was considered. Submitted October 1, 2020. Published April 20, 2021.
