Multi-layer radial solutions for a supercritical neumann problem

In this paper we study the Neumann problem\begin{equation*}\begin{cases}-Δu+u=u^p \& \text{ in }B\_1 \\u \textgreater{} 0, \& \text{ in }B\_1 \\\partial\_νu=0 \& \text{ on } \partial B\_1,\end{cases}\end{equation*}and we show the existence of multiple-layer radial solutions as $p\rightarrow+\infty$.

Existence and symmetry of least energy nodal solutions for Hamiltonian elliptic systems

In this paper we prove existence of least energy nodal solutions for the Hamiltonian elliptic system with Hénon-type weights \[ -Δu = |x|^β |v|^{q-1}v, \quad -Δv =|x|^α|u|^{p-1}u\quad { in } Ω, \qquad u=v=0 { on } \partial Ω, \] where $Ω$ is a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 1$, $α, β\geq 0$ and the nonlinearities are superlinear and subcritical, namely \[ 1> \frac{1}{p+1}+\frac{1}{q+1}> \frac{N-2}{N}. \] When $Ω$ is either a ball or an annulus centred at the origin and $N \geq 2$, we show that these solutions display the so-called foliated Schwarz symmetry. It is natural to conjecture that these solutions are not radially symmetric. We provide such a symmetry breaking in a range of parameters where the solutions of the system behave like the solutions of a single equation. Our results on the above system are new even in the case of the Lane-Emden system (i.e. without weights). As far as we know, this is the first paper that contains results about least energy nodal solutions for strongly coupled elliptic systems and their symmetry properties.

Hamiltonian elliptic systems: a guide to variational frameworks

Consider a Hamiltonian system of type \[ -Δu=H_{v}(u,v),\ -Δv=H_{u}(u,v) \ \ \text{ in } Ω, \qquad u,v=0 \text{ on } \partial Ω\] where $H$ is a power-type nonlinearity, for instance $H(u,v)= |u|^p/p+|v|^q/q$, having subcritical growth, and $Ω$ is a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 1$. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the several variational frameworks that can be used to treat such a system. Within each approach, we address existence of solutions, and in particular of ground state solutions. Some of the available frameworks are more adequate to derive certain qualitative properties; we illustrate this in the second half of this survey, where we also review some of the most recent literature dealing mainly with symmetry, concentration, and multiplicity results. This paper contains some original results as well as new proofs and approaches to known facts.

Increasing radial solutions for Neumann problems without growth restrictions

We study the existence of positive increasing radial solutions for superlinear Neumann problems in the ball. We do not impose any growth condition on the nonlinearity at infinity and our assumptions allow for interactions with the spectrum. In our approach we use both topological and variational arguments, and we overcome the lack of compactness by considering the cone of nonnegative, nondecreasing radial functions of H^1.

Nonlinear Schrödinger equation with unbounded or vanishing potentials: solutions concentrating on lower dimensional spheres

We study positive bound states for the semiclassical stationary nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We are especially interested in solutions which concentrate on a lower dimensional sphere. We adopt a purely variational approach which allows us to consider broader classes of potentials than those treated in previous works. For example, the potentials might be singular at the origin or vanish superquadratically at infinity.
