Topics covered include Morse theory, critical groups, the minimax principle, various notions of linking, jumping nonlinearities and the Fu?k spectrum in an abstract setting, sandwich pairs and the cohomological index. Applications to semilinear elliptic boundary value problems, p-Laplacian problems and anisotropic systems are given.
