Abstract
A new variant of The Three Critical Points theorem is obtained. The au thors prove that (under suitable quite simple hypotheses) either the f unctional in question has at least three distinct critical values or, its set of minimum points is noncontractible in itself. As application , the problem of nontrivial solutions of nonlinear integral Hammerstei n equations with lack of compactness is considerd.
