We investigate nonlinear problems which appear as Euler-Lagrange equations for a variational problem. They include in particular variational boundary value problems for nonlinear elliptic equations studied by F. Browder in the 1960s. We establish a solvability criterion of such problems and elaborate an efficient orthogonal projection method for constructing approximate solutions.
We define the Dirichlet to Neumann operator for an elliptic complex of first order differential operators on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. Under reasonable conditions the Betti numbers of the complex prove to be completely determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann operator on the boundary.
