Slope-changing solutions of elliptic problems on

We consider the problem on , where F is a smooth function periodic of period 1 in all its variables. We are going to find a non-degeneracy condition on F for which the following holds. If we are given a sequence of positive integers and a sequence of real numbers (the slopes), then we shall find an increasing sequence {Q_i} of integers and a solution u which is entire, periodic in (x₂,…,x_n) and which is close to the plane α₁(x₁−Q_i)+u(Q_i,0,…,0) for .
