Streszczenie
We consider noncoercive functionals on a reflexive Banach space and establish minimization theorems for such functionals on smooth constraint manifolds. The functionals considered belong to a class which includes semi-coercive, compact-coercive and P-coercive functionals. Some applications to nonlinear partial differential equations are given.
