Yamabe type equations on graphs

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a locally finite graph, $\Omega\subset V$ be a bounded domain, $\Delta$ be the usual graph Laplacian, and $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ be the first eigenvalue of $-\Delta$ with respect to Dirichlet boundary condition. Using the mountain pass theorem due to Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz, we prove that if $\alpha<\lambda_1(\Omega)$, then for any $p>2$, there exists a positive solution to $-\Delta u-\alpha u=|u|^{p-2}u$ in $\Omega^\circ$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$, where $\Omega^\circ$ and $\partial\Omega$ denote the interior and the boundary of $\Omega$ respectively. Also we consider similar problems involving the $p$-Laplacian and poly-Laplacian by the same method. Such problems can be viewed as discrete versions of the Yamabe type equations on Euclidean space or compact Riemannian manifolds.
