Bifurcation of positive solutions for a semilinear equation with critical Sobolev exponent
In this note we consider bifurcation of positive solutions to the semilinear elliptic boundary-value problem with critical Sobolev exponent $$displaylines{ -Delta u = lambda u - alpha u^p+ u^{2^*-1}, quad u >0 , quad hbox{in } Omega,cr u=0, quad hbox{on } partialOmega. }$$ where $Omega subset m...

description | In this note we consider bifurcation of positive solutions to the semilinear elliptic boundary-value problem with critical Sobolev exponent $$displaylines{ -Delta u = lambda u - alpha u^p+ u^{2^*-1}, quad u >0 , quad hbox{in } Omega,cr u=0, quad hbox{on } partialOmega. }$$ where $Omega subset mathbb{R}^n$, $nge 3 $ is a bounded $C^2$-domain $lambda>lambda_1$, $1<p < 2^* -1= frac{n+2}{n-2} $ and $alpha >0$ is a bifurcation parameter. Brezis and Nirenberg [2] showed that a lower order (non-negative) perturbation can contribute to regain the compactness and whence yields existence of solutions. We study the equation with an indefinite perturbation and prove a bifurcation result of two solutions for this equation. |
