Abstract

We consider a compact, connected, orientable, boundaryless Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of class $C^\infty$ where $g$ denotes the metric tensor. Let $n= \dim M \geq 3$. Using Morse techniques, we prove the existence of $2{\mathcal P}_1(M) -1$ non-costant solutions $u\in H^{1,p}(M)$ to the quasilinear problem \[ (P_\epsilon) \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\epsilon^p \, \Delta_{p,g} u +u^{p-1}=u^{q-1} \\ u>0 \end{array} \right. \label{eqab} \] for $\varepsilon>0$ small enough, where $2 \leq p
