AbstractWe are concerned with an elliptic problem which describes a mean field equation of the equilibrium turbulence of vortices with variable intensities. In the first part of the paper, we describe the blow-up picture and highlight the differences from the standard mean field equation as we observe non-quantization phenomenon. In the second part, we discuss the Moser–Trudinger inequality in terms of the blow-up masses and get the existence of solutions in a non-coercive regime by means of a variational argument, which is based on some improved Moser–Trudinger inequalities.

Abstract We are concerned with wave equations associated with some Liouville-type problems on compact surfaces, focusing on sinh-Gordon equation and general Toda systems. Our aim is on one side to develop the analysis for wave equations associated with the latter problems and second, to substantially refine the analysis initiated in Chanillo and Yung (Adv Math 235:187–207, 2013) concerning the mean field equation. In particular, by exploiting the variational analysis recently derived for Liouville-type problems we prove global existence in time for the subcritical case and we give general blow-up criteria for the supercritical and critical case. The strategy is mainly based on fixed point arguments and improved versions of the Moser–Trudinger inequality.

Abstract We prove the existence of a family of blow-up solutions of a mean field equation on the sphere. The solutions blow up at four points where the minimum value of a potential energy function (involving the Green’s function) is attained. The four blow-up points form a regular tetrahedron. Moreover, the solutions we build have a group of symmetry {T_{d}} which is isomorphic to the symmetric group {S_{4}} . Other families of solutions can be similarly constructed with blow-up points at the vertices of equilateral triangles on a great circle or other inscribed platonic solids (cubes, octahedrons, icosahedrons and dodecahedrons). All of these solutions have the symmetries of the corresponding configuration, while they are non-axially symmetric.

Let [Formula: see text] be a closed Riemannian surface, [Formula: see text] be an isometric group acting on it. Denote a positive integer [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the number of all distinct points of the set [Formula: see text]. A sufficient condition for existence of solutions to the mean field equation [Formula: see text] is given. This recovers results of Ding–Jost–Li–Wang, Asian J. Math. (1997) 230–248 when [Formula: see text] or equivalently [Formula: see text], where Id is the identity map.
