We consider the multiple existence of positive solutions of the following nonlinear Schrödinger equation: where p∈(1,N+2N-2) if N≥ 3 and p(1,∞) if N= 1, 2, and a (x), b (x) are continuous functions. We assume that a (x) is nonnegative and has a potential well Ω:= int a− 1 (0) consisting of k components \Omega_1,...,\Omega_k and the first eigenvalues of− Δ+ b (x) on Ω j under Dirichlet boundary condition are positive for all j=1,2,...,k. Under these conditions we show that (PM λ) has at least 2 k− 1 positive solutions for large λ. More precisely we show that for any given non-empty subset J⊂{1,2,...k\},(P λ) has a positive solutions u λ (x) for large λ. In addition for any sequence λ n→∞ we can extract a subsequence λ ni along which u λni converges strongly in H 1 (RN). Moreover the limit function u (x)= lim i→∞ u λni satisfies (i) For j J the restriction u| Ω j of u (x) to Ω j is a least energy solution of− Δ v+ b (x) v= vp in Ω j and v= 0 on∂ Ω j.(ii) u (x)= 0 for x∈\bfR^N∖(j∈J\Omega_j).
