We study positive solutions of an elliptic problem with indefinite in sign nonlinear Neumann boundary condition that depends on a real parameter, $\lambda$. We find precise range, $I$, of those $\lambda$'s for which our problem possesses a positive solution, prove that $\lambda^$∗ = sup $I$ is a bifurcation point, and exhibit explicit max-min procedure for computing $\lambda^$∗. We also obtain some properties of the set of solutions.
Keywords: fibering method, nonlinear Neumann boundary condition, Nonlinear partial differential equation, positive solution, bifurcation..
