Nonradial normalized solutions for nonlinear scalar field equations
2018
We study the following nonlinear scalar field equation $$ -\Delta u=f(u)-\mu u, \quad u \in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) \quad \text{with} \quad \|u\|^2_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^N)}=m. $$ Here $f\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})$, $m>0$ is a given constant and $\mu\in\mathbb{R}$ is a Lagrange multiplier. In a mass subcritical case but under general assumptions on the nonlinearity $f$, we show the existence of one nonradial solution for any $N\geq4$, and obtain multiple (sometimes infinitely many) nonradial solutions when $N=4$ or $N\geq6$. In particular, all these solutions are sign-changing.
A priori bounds and multiplicity of solutions for an indefinite elliptic problem with critical growth in the gradient
2019
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a smooth bounded domain. We consider a boundary value problem of the form $$-\Delta u = c_{\lambda}(x) u + \mu(x) |\nabla u|^2 + h(x), \quad u \in H^1_0(\Omega)\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega)$$ where $c_{\lambda}$ depends on a parameter $\lambda \in \mathbb R$, the coefficients $c_{\lambda}$ and $h$ belong to $L^q(\Omega)$ with $q>N/2$ and $\mu \in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$. Under suitable assumptions, but without imposing a sign condition on any of these coefficients, we obtain an a priori upper bound on the solutions. Our proof relies on a new boundary weak Harnack inequality. This inequality, which is of independent interest, is established in the gener…
Nonlinear scalar field equations with general nonlinearity
2018
Consider the nonlinear scalar field equation \begin{equation} \label{a1} -\Delta{u}= f(u)\quad\text{in}~\mathbb{R}^N,\qquad u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N), \end{equation} where $N\geq3$ and $f$ satisfies the general Berestycki-Lions conditions. We are interested in the existence of positive ground states, of nonradial solutions and in the multiplicity of radial and nonradial solutions. Very recently Mederski [30] made a major advance in that direction through the development, in an abstract setting, of a new critical point theory for constrained functionals. In this paper we propose an alternative, more elementary approach, which permits to recover Mederski's results on the scalar field equation. T…
Strong Instability of Ground States to a Fourth Order Schrödinger Equation
2019
Abstract In this note, we prove the instability by blow-up of the ground state solutions for a class of fourth order Schrödinger equations. This extends the first rigorous results on blowing-up solutions for the biharmonic nonlinear Schrödinger due to Boulenger and Lenzmann [8] and confirm numerical conjectures from [1–3, 11].
Multiple positive normalized solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger systems
2018
We consider the existence of multiple positive solutions to the nonlinear Schr\"odinger systems sets on $H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) \times H^1(\mathbb{R}^N)$, \[ \left\{ \begin{aligned} -\Delta u_1 &= \lambda_1 u_1 + \mu_1 |u_1|^{p_1 -2}u_1 + \beta r_1 |u_1|^{r_1-2} u_1|u_2|^{r_2}, -\Delta u_2 &= \lambda_2 u_2 + \mu_2 |u_2|^{p_2 -2}u_2 + \beta r_2 |u_1|^{r_1} |u_2|^{r_2 -2} u_2, \end{aligned} \right. \] under the constraint \[ \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}|u_1|^2 \, dx = a_1,\quad \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}|u_2|^2 \, dx = a_2. \] Here $a_1, a_2 >0$ are prescribed, $\mu_1, \mu_2, \beta>0$, and the frequencies $\lambda_1, \lambda_2$ are unknown and will appear as Lagrange multipliers. Two cases are studied, the first …

Multiple normalized solutions for a Sobolev critical Schrödinger-Poisson-Slater equation
2021
We look for solutions to the Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson-Slater equation $$- \Delta u + \lambda u - \gamma (|x|^{-1} * |u|^2) u - a |u|^{p-2}u = 0 \quad \text{in} \quad \mathbb{R}^3, $$ which satisfy \begin{equation*} \int_{\mathbb{R}^3}|u|^2 \, dx = c \end{equation*} for some prescribed $c>0$. Here $ u \in H^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$, $\gamma \in \mathbb{R},$ $ a \in \mathbb{R}$ and $p \in (\frac{10}{3}, 6]$. When $\gamma >0$ and $a > 0$, both in the Sobolev subcritical case $p \in (\frac{10}{3}, 6)$ and in the Sobolev critical case $p=6$, we show that there exists a $c_1>0$ such that, for any $c \in (0,c_1)$, the equation admits two solutions $u_c^+$ and $u_c^-$ which can be characterized respectively…
