We use Morse theory to estimate the number of positive solutions of an elliptic problem in an open bounded setΩ∉ ℝN. The number of solutions depends on the topology ofΩ, actually onPt(Ω), the Poincaré polynomial ofΩ.More precisely, we obtain the following Morse relations: $$\sum\limits_{u \in K} {t^{\mu \left( u \right)} } = tP_t \left( \Omega \right) + t^2 [P_t \left( \Omega \right) - 1] + t\left( {1 + t} \right)\underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\thicksim}$}}{O} \left( t \right)$$ , where $$\underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\thicksim}$}}{O} \left( t \right)$$ is a polynomial with non-negative integer coefficients,Kis the set of positive solutions of our problem andμ(u) is the Morse index of the solutionu.
