Existence and Multiplicity of Positive Solutions for Dirichlet Problems in Unbounded Domains
Keyword(s):
We consider the elliptic problem−Δu+u=b(x)|u|p−2u+h(x)inΩ,u∈H01(Ω), where2<p<(2N/(N−2)) (N≥3), 2<p<∞ (N=2), Ωis a smooth unbounded domain inℝN, b(x)∈C(Ω), andh(x)∈H−1(Ω). We use the shape of domainΩto prove that the above elliptic problem has a ground-state solution if the coefficientb(x)satisfiesb(x)→b∞>0as|x|→∞andb(x)≥cfor some suitable constantsc∈(0,b∞), andh(x)≡0. Furthermore, we prove that the above elliptic problem has multiple positive solutions if the coefficientb(x)also satisfies the above conditions,h(x)≥0and0<‖h‖H−1<(p−2)(1/(p−1))(p−1)/(p−2)[bsupSp(Ω)]1/(2−p), whereS(Ω)is the best Sobolev constant of subcritical operator inH01(Ω)andbsup=supx∈Ωb(x).
