A new spectral theory for nonlinear operators and its applications

In this paper, by applying (p,k)-epi mapping theory, we introduce a new definition of spectrum for nonlinear operators which contains all eigenvalues, as in the linear case. Properties of this spectrum are given and comparison is made with the other definitions of spectra. We also give applications...
