Existence results for fully nonlinear equations in radial domains

We consider the fully nonlinear problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -F(x,D^2u)=|u|^{p-1}u & \text{in $Ω$}\\ u=0 & \text{on $\partialΩ$} \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $F$ is uniformly elliptic, $p>1$ and $Ω$ is either an annulus or a ball in $\Rn$, $n\geq2$. \\ We prove the following results: \begin{itemize} \item[i)] existence of a positive/negative radial solution for every exponent $p>1$, if $Ω$ is an annulus; \item[ii)] existence of infinitely many sign changing radial solutions for every $p>1$, characterized by the number of nodal regions, if $Ω$ is an annulus; \item[iii)] existence of infinitely many sign changing radial solutions characterized by the number of nodal regions, if $F$ is one of the Pucci's operator, $Ω$ is a ball and $p$ is subcritical.
