An alternative proof of the mountain pass theorem for a class of functionals
We present an alternative proof of the Mountain Pass Theorem by means of the classical Ekeland Variational Principle for a class of <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$${\mathcal{C}^1}$$</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> -functionals. In this new proof we avoid the machinery of convex analysis by a simpler characterization of the critical values of the functional. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013
