Existence and uniqueness of ground state solutions for the planar Schrödinger-Newton equation on the disc
This paper is concerned with the existence and qualitative properties of positive ground state solutions for the planar Schrödinger-Newton equation on the disc. First, we prove the existence and radial symmetry of all the positive ground state solutions by employing the symmetric decreasing rearrangement and Talenti's inequality. Next, we develop Newton's theorem and then use the contraction mapping principle to establish the uniqueness of the positive ground state solution for the Schrödinger-Newton equation on the disc in the two dimensional case. Finally, we show that the unique positive ground state solution converges to the trivial solution as the radius $R$ tending to infinity, which is totally different from the higher dimensional case in \cite{Guo-Wang-Yi}.
