Abstract
By means of Morse theory we prove the existence of a nontrivial
solution to a superlinear p-harmonic elliptic problem with
Navier boundary conditions having a linking structure around the
origin. Moreover, in case of both resonance near zero and
nonresonance at +∞ the existence of two nontrivial
solutions is shown.
