Generalized Schr\"odinger-Newton system in dimension N≥3N\ge 3: critical case

In this paper we study a system which is equivalent to a nonlocal version of the well known Brezis Nirenberg problem. The difficulties related with the lack of compactness are here emphasized by the nonlocal nature of the critical nonlinear term. We prove existence and nonexistence results of positive solutions when $N=3$ and existence of solutions in both the resonance and the nonresonance case for higher dimensions.Comment: 18 pages, typos fixed, some minor revision

Bubbling solutions for supercritical problems on manifolds

Let $(M,g)$ be a $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and $\Gamma$ be a non degenerate closed geodesic of $(M,g)$. We prove that the supercritical problem $$-\Delta_gu+h u=u^{\frac{n+1}{n-3}\pm\epsilon},\ u>0,\ \hbox{in}\ (M,g)$$ has a solution that concentrates along $\Gamma$ as $\epsilon$ goes to zero, provided the function $h$ and the sectional curvatures along $\Gamma$ satisfy a suitable condition. A connection with the solution of a class of periodic O.D.E.'s with singularity of attractive or repulsive type is established

Large mass boundary condensation patterns in the stationary Keller-Segel system

We consider the boundary value problem $-\Delta u + u =\lambda e^u$ in $\Omega$ with Neumann boundary condition, where $\Omega$ is a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb R^2$, $\lambda>0.$ This problem is equivalent to the stationary Keller-Segel system from chemotaxis. We establish the existence of a solution $u_\lambda$ which exhibits a sharp boundary layer along the entire boundary $\partial\Omega$ as $\lambda\to 0$. These solutions have large mass in the sense that $ \int_\Omega \lambda e^{u_\lambda} \sim |\log\lambda|.

Sign-Changing Solutions for Critical Equations with Hardy Potential

We consider the following perturbed critical Dirichlet problem involving the Hardy-Schr\"odinger operator on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 3$, with $0 \in \Omega$: $$\left\{ \begin{array}{ll}-\Delta u-\gamma \frac{u}{|x|^2}-\epsilon u=|u|^{\frac{4}{N-2}}u &\hbox{in }\Omega u=0 & \hbox{on }\partial \Omega, \end{array}\right.$$ when $\epsilon>0$ is small and $\gamma< {(N-2)^2\over4}$. Setting $\gamma_j= \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}\left(1-\frac{j(N-2+j)}{N-1}\right)\in(-\infty,0]$ for $j \in \mathbb{N},$ we show that if $\gamma\leq \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}-1$ and $\gamma \neq \gamma_j$ for any $j$, then for small $\epsilon$, the above equation has a positive --non variational-- solution that develops a bubble at the origin. If moreover $\gamma<\frac{(N-2)^2}{4}-4,$ then for any integer $k \geq 2$, the equation has for small enough $\epsilon$, a sign-changing solution that develops into a superposition of $k$ bubbles with alternating sign centered at the origin. The above result is optimal in the radial case, where the condition that $\gamma\neq \gamma_j$ is not necessary. Indeed, it is known that, if $\gamma > \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}-1$ and $\Omega$ is a ball $B$, then there is no radial positive solution for $\epsilon>0$ small. We complete the picture here by showing that, if $\gamma\geq \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}-4$, then the above problem has no radial sign-changing solutions for $\epsilon>0$ small. These results recover and improve what is known in the non-singular case, i.e., when $\gamma=0$.Comment: 41 pages, Updated version - if any - can be downloaded at http://www.birs.ca/~nassif
