%X Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ and let $m$ be a possibly discontinuous and unbounded function that changes sign in $\Omega$. Let $f:\left[ 0,\infty\right) \rightarrow\left[ 0,\infty\right) $ be a continuous function such that $k_{1}\xi^{p}\leq f\left(\xi\right) \leq k_{2}\xi^{p}$ for all $\xi\geq0$ and some $k_{1},k_{2}>0$ and $p\in\left(0,1\right) $. We study existence and nonexistence of strictly positive solutions for nonlinear elliptic problems of the form $-\Delta u=m\left(x\right) f\left(u\right) $ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$.
