    Existence and asymptotic behaviour of solutions for a quasi-linear schrodinger-poisson system under a critical nonlinearity

    Full text link
    In this paper we consider the following quasilinear Schr\"odinger-Poisson system \left\{ \begin{array}[c]{ll} - \Delta u +u+\phi u = \lambda f(x,u)+|u|^{2^{*}-2}u &\ \mbox{in } \mathbb{R}^{3} \\ -\Delta \phi -\varepsilon^{4} \Delta_4 \phi = u^{2} & \ \mbox{in } \mathbb{R}^{3}, \end{array} \right. depending on the two parameters λ,ε>0\lambda,\varepsilon>0. We first prove that, for λ\lambda larger then a certain λ>0\lambda^{*}>0, there exists a solution for every ε>0\varepsilon>0. Later, we study the asymptotic behaviour of these solutions whenever ε\varepsilon tends to zero, and we prove that they converge to the solution of the Schr\"odinger-Poisson system associated

    A multiplicity result via Ljusternick-Schnirelmann category and morse theory for a fractional schr\"odinger equation in RN\mathbb R^{N}

    Full text link
    In this work we study the following class of problems in RN,N>2s\mathbb R^{N}, N>2s ε2s(Δ)su+V(z)u=f(u),u(z)>0 \varepsilon^{2s} (-\Delta)^{s}u + V(z)u=f(u), \,\,\, u(z) > 0 where 0<s<10<s<1, (Δ)s(-\Delta)^{s} is the fractional Laplacian, ε\varepsilon is a positive parameter, the potential V:RNRV:\mathbb{R}^N \to\mathbb{R} %is a continuous functions and the nonlinearity f:RRf:\mathbb R \to \mathbb R satisfy suitable assumptions; in particular it is assumed that VV achieves its positive minimum on some set M.M. By using variational methods we prove existence, multiplicity and concentration of maxima of positive solutions when ε0+\varepsilon\to 0^{+}. In particular the multiplicity result is obtained by means of the Ljusternick-Schnirelmann and Morse theory, by exploiting the "topological complexity" of the set MM

    Some remarks on the comparison principle in Kirchhoff equations

    Full text link
    In this paper we study the validity of the comparison principle and the sub-supersolution method for Kirchhoff type equations. We show that these principles do not work when the Kirchhoff function is increasing, contradicting some previous results. We give an alternative sub-supersolution method and apply it to some models

    Ground state solution for a Kirchhoff problem with exponential critical growth

    Full text link
    We establish the existence of a positive ground state solution for a Kirchhoff problem in R2\mathbb{R}^2 involving critical exponential growth, that is, the nonlinearity behaves like exp(α0s2)\exp(\alpha_{0}s^{2}) as s|s| \to \infty, for some α0>0\alpha_{0}>0. In order to obtain our existence result we used minimax techniques combined with the Trudinger-Moser inequality

    Full text link
    In this paper, we are going to study the existence of solution for the following Kirchhoff problem \left\{ \begin{array}{l} M\biggl(\displaystyle\int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}|\nabla u|^{2} dx +\displaystyle\int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}} \lambda a(x)+1)u^{2} dx\biggl) \biggl(- \Delta u + (\lambda a(x)+1)u\biggl) = f(u) \mbox{ in } \,\,\, \mathbb{R}^{3}, \\ \mbox{}\\ u \in H^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{3}). \end{array} \right. Assuming that the nonnegative function a(x)a(x) has a potential well with int(a1({0}))int (a^{-1}(\{0\})) consisting of kk disjoint components Ω1,Ω2,.....,Ωk\Omega_1, \Omega_2, ....., \Omega_k and the nonlinearity f(t)f(t) has a subcritical growth, we are able to establish the existence of positive multi-bump solutions by variational methods.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1501.0293

    Multiplicity of solutions for a NLS equations with magnetic fields in RN\mathbb{R}^{N}}

    Full text link
    We investigate the multiplicity of nontrivial weak solutions for a class of complex equations. This class of problems are related with the existence of solitary waves for a nonlinear Sch\"{o}dinger equation. The main result is established by using minimax methods and Lusternik-Schnirelman theory of critical points

    Existence of least energy nodal solution with two nodal domains for a generalized Kirchhoff problem in an Orlicz Sobolev space

    Full text link
    We show the existence of a nodal solution with two nodal domains for a generalized Kirchhoff equation of the type -M\left(\displaystyle\int_\Omega \Phi(|\nabla u|)dx\right)\Delta_\Phi u = f(u) \ \ \mbox{in} \ \ \Omega, \ \ u=0 \ \ \mbox{on} \ \ \partial\Omega, where Ω\Omega is a bounded domain in RN\mathbf{R}^N, MM is a general C1C^{1} class function, ff is a superlinear C1C^{1} class function with subcritical growth, Φ\Phi is defined for tRt\in \mathbf{R} by setting Φ(t)=0tϕ(s)sds \Phi(t)=\int_0^{|t|}\phi(s)sds, ΔΦ\Delta_\Phi is the operator ΔΦu:=div(ϕ(u)u)\Delta_\Phi u:=div(\phi(|\nabla u|)\nabla u). The proof is based on a minimization argument and a quantitative deformation lemma

    Nodal solutions of a NLS equation concentrating on lower dimensional spheres

    Full text link
    In this work we deal with a following nonlinear Schrodinger equation in dimension greater or equal to 3, with a subcritical power-type nonlinearity and a positive potential satisfying a local condition. We prove the existence and concentration of nodal solutions which concentrate around a k - dimensional sphere of RN, where k is between 1 and N-1, as a parameter goes to 0. The radius of such sphere is related with the local minimum of a function which takes into account the potential. Variational methods are used together with the penalization technique in order to overcome the lack of compactness.Comment: 25 page
