Abstract: We establish a unilateral global bifurcation result for the following problem
{-div(del u/root 1-vertical bar del u vertical bar(2)) = lambda f(x, u) in Omega,
u = 0 on partial derivative Omega,
where Omega is a bounded domain in R-N. Based on this global bifurcation result, we also studied the global structure of one-sign solutions according to different asymptotic behaviors (sublinear/linear/superlinear/jumping) nonlinearity near zero.
