We study the multiplicity solutions for the nonlinear elliptic equation

$ -\mathcal{M}_{\lambda,\Lambda}^+ (D^2u)=f(u) $ in $\Omega$,

$ u=0 $ on $\partial \Omega$

and a more general fully nonlinear elliptic equation

$ F(D^2u)=f(u) $ in $\Omega$,

$ u=0 $ on $\partial \Omega$,

where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N, N\geq 3$, $f$ is a locally Lipschitz continuous function with superlinear growth at infinity. We will show that the equation has at least two positive solutions under some assumptions.

Keywords: zeros., multiple solutions, Pucci equation.
