We obtain some new exact multiplicity results for the Dirichlet boundary-value problem on a unit ball Bn in Rn. We consider several classes of nonlinearities f(u), including both positive and sign-changing cases. A crucial part of the proof is to establish positivity of solutions for the corresponding linearized problem. As an application we obtain exact multiplicity results for the Holling-Tanner population model.
