In this paper, by using a modified Nehari–Pankov manifold, we prove the existence and the asymptotic behavior of least energy solutions for the following indefinite biharmonic equation: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is a parameter, [Formula: see text] is a nonnegative potential function with nonempty zero set [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is a positive function such that the operator [Formula: see text] is indefinite and non-degenerate for [Formula: see text] large. We show that both in subcritical and critical cases, equation [Formula: see text] admits a least energy solution which for [Formula: see text] large localized near the zero set [Formula: see text].

Abstract We are concerned with a nonnegative solution to the scalar field equation $$\Delta u + f(u) = 0{\rm in }{\open R}^N,\quad \mathop {\lim }\limits_{|x|\to \infty } u(x) = 0.$$ A classical existence result by Berestycki and Lions [3] considers only the case when f is continuous. In this paper, we are interested in the existence of a solution when f is singular. For a singular nonlinearity f, Gazzola, Serrin and Tang [8] proved an existence result when $f \in L^1_{loc}(\mathbb {R}) \cap \mathrm {Lip}_{loc}(0,\infty )$ with $\int _0^u f(s)\,{\rm d}s < 0$ for small $u>0.$ Since they use a shooting argument for their proof, they require the property that $f \in \mathrm {Lip}_{loc}(0,\infty ).$ In this paper, using a purely variational method, we extend the previous existence results for $f \in L^1_{loc}(\mathbb {R}) \cap C(0,\infty )$ . We show that a solution obtained through minimization has the least energy among all radially symmetric weak solutions. Moreover, we describe a general condition under which a least energy solution has compact support.

We study the semiclassical limit of the least energy solutions to the nonlinear Dirac equation for x ∈ ℝ3. We prove that the equation has least energy solutions for all ħ > 0 small, and, in addition, that the solutions converge in a certain sense to the least energy solution of the associated limit problem as ħ → 0.

We study the Emden–Fowler equation whose coefficient function is even in the interval (—1, 1), negative near t = 0 and positive near t = ±1. Then we prove that a least energy solution is not even. Therefore, the equation has an even positive solution and a non-even positive solution.

Abstract This paper is dedicated to studying the nonlinear Schrödinger equations of the form $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\triangle u+V(x)u=f(u), & x\in \mathbb{R}^N; \\ u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{array} \right. \end{array}$$ where V ∈ 𝓒1(ℝN, [0, ∞)) satisfies some weak assumptions, and f ∈ 𝓒(ℝ, ℝ) satisfies the general Berestycki-Lions assumptions. By introducing some new tricks, we prove that the above problem admits a ground state solution of Pohožaev type and a least energy solution. These results generalize and improve some ones in [L. Jeanjean, K. Tanka, Indiana Univ. Math. J. 54 (2005), 443-464], [L. Jeanjean, K. Tanka, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 131 (2003) 2399-2408], [H. Berestycki, P.L. Lions, Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 82 (1983) 313-345] and some other related literature. In particular, our assumptions are “almost” necessary when V(x) ≡ V∞ > 0, moreover, our approach could be useful for the study of other problems where radial symmetry of bounded sequence either fails or is not readily available, or where the ground state solutions of the problem at infinity are not sign definite.
