    Consider the problem \begin{eqnarray*} -\Delta u &=& v^{\frac 2{N-2}},\quad v>0\quad {in}\quad \Omega, -\Delta v &=& u^{p},\:\:\:\quad u>0\quad {in}\quad \Omega, u&=&v\:\:=\:\:0 \quad {on}\quad \partial \Omega, \end{eqnarray*} where Ω\Omega is a bounded convex domain in RN,\R^N, N>2,N>2, with smooth boundary Ω.\partial \Omega. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the least energy solutions of this system as p.p\to \infty. We show that the solution remain bounded for pp large and have one or two peaks away form the boundary. When one peak occurs we characterize its location.Comment: 16 pages, submmited for publicatio

    Let LL be a linear, closed, densely defined in a Hilbert space operator, not necessarily selfadjoint. Consider the corresponding wave equations &(1) \quad \ddot{w}+ Lw=0, \quad w(0)=0,\quad \dot{w}(0)=f, \quad \dot{w}=\frac{dw}{dt}, \quad f \in H. &(2) \quad \ddot{u}+Lu=f e^{-ikt}, \quad u(0)=0, \quad \dot{u}(0)=0, where k>0k>0 is a constant. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the operator LL not to have eigenvalues in the half-plane Rez<0z<0 and not to have a positive eigenvalue at a given point kd2>0k_d^2 >0. These conditions are given in terms of the large-time behavior of the solutions to problem (1) for generic ff. Sufficient conditions are given for the validity of a version of the limiting amplitude principle for the operator LL. A relation between the limiting amplitude principle and the limiting absorption principle is established

    In this paper, we establish existence results for positive solutions to the Lichnerowicz equation of the following type in closed manifolds -\Delta u=A(x)u^{-p}-B(x)u^{q},\quad in\quad M, where p>1,q>0p>1, q>0, and A(x)>0A(x)>0, B(x)0B(x)\geq0 are given smooth functions. Our analysis is based on the global existence of positive solutions to the following heat equation {ll} u_t-\Delta u=A(x)u^{-p}-B(x)u^{q},\quad in\quad M\times\mathbb{R}^{+}, u(x,0)=u_0,\quad in\quad M with the positive smooth initial data u0u_0.Comment: 10 page
