Abstract: We study the existence of solutions of the Neumann problem for semilinear second-order elliptic equations at resonance in which the nonlinear terms may grow superlinearly in one of the directions $u\to\infty$ and $u\to-\infty$, and sublinearly in the other. Solvability results are obtained under assumptions either with or without a Landesman-Lazer condition. The proofs are based on degree-theoretic arguments.
