A global solution curve for a class of semilinear equations

We use bifurcation theory to give a simple proof of existence and uniqueness of a positive solution for the problem $$ Delta u - lambda u+u^p = 0 quad mbox{for } |x| < 1, quad u = 0 quad mbox{on } |x| = 1, $$ where $x in {mathbb R}^n$, for any integer $n geq 1$, and real 1 less than $p (n+2)/(n-2...
