Multiplicity and asymptotics of positive solutions for critical-concave Kirchhoff equation
This paper focuses on the critical Kirchhoff equation with concave perturbation \begin{align*} \begin{cases} \displaystyle -\Big(a+b\int_Ω|\nabla u|^2dx\Big)Δu=|u|^4u+λ|u|^{q-2}u\ \ &\mbox{in}\ Ω, \displaystyle u=0\ \ &\mbox{on}\ \partialΩ, \end{cases} \end{align*} where $Ω$ is a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$, $a,b,λ>0$ and $1 0$ small enough. Moreover, we analyse the asymptotic behaviour of positive solutions as $b\rightarrow0$ and $λ\rightarrow0$, respectively. This work is a counterpart of [A. Ambrosetti et al., J.~Funct.~Anal. 1994] for the Kirchhoff equation. It is noteworthy that we don't require that $b>0$ is small enough here, which is imposed in the existing literatures to make refined estimates for the mountain pass level.
