Let u be a function on a locally finite graph G = (V, E) and Ω be a bounded subset of V. Let 𝜀 > 0, p > 2 and 0 ≤ λ < λ₁(Ω) be constants, where λ₁(Ω) is the first eigenvalue of the discrete Laplacian, and h : V → ℝ be a function satisfying h ≥ 0 and $h{\not\equiv}0$. We consider a perturbed Yamabe equation, say $$\{\begin{array}{lll}-{\Delta}u-{\lambda}u={\mid}u{\mid}^{p-2}u+{\varepsilon}h,&&\text{ in }{\Omega},\\u=0,&&\text{ on }{\partial}{\Omega},\end{array}$$ where Ω and ∂Ω denote the interior and the boundary of Ω, respectively. Using variational methods, we prove that there exists some positive constant 𝜀₀ > 0 such that for all 𝜀 ∈ (0, 𝜀₀), the above equation has two distinct solutions. Moreover, we consider a more general nonlinear equation $$\{\begin{array}{lll}-{\Delta}u=f(u)+{\varepsilon}h,&&\text{ in }{\Omega},\\u=0,&&\text{ on }{\partial}{\Omega},\end{array}$$ and prove similar result for certain nonlinear term f(u).
