Nonexistence and optimal decay of supersolutions to Choquard equations in exterior domains (Q1945852)

In this paper the authors study the existence and decay rate of super-solutions for non-local equations \[ -\Delta u (x) +\frac{\lambda}{|x|^\gamma}u(x) = \left( I_\alpha * u^p\right)(x) u(x)^q \] in exterior domains in \(\mathbb{R}^N\). Here \( I_\alpha(x) = \frac{A_\alpha}{|x|^{N-\alpha}}\) is the Riesz potential. Various cases are thoroughly considered according to the decay rate of the potential (controlled by \(\gamma\)) and to the exponents \(p\) and \(q\). The locally sublinear case \(p+q>1\) and \(q< 1\) presents a new situation relative to the sublinear/superlinear dichotomy in local equations.
