A class of supercritical Sobolev type inequalities with logarithm and related elliptic equations (Q2109352)

In the article, the authors prove the following Sobolev embedding: \[ \sup \Big\{ \int_B |u|^{2^*} \Big | \ln(\tau+|u|)\Big|^{|x|^\beta} dx: u \in H_{0,\text{rad}}^1(B), \|\nabla u\|_{L^2(B)}=1\Big\}<\infty, \] where \(\beta>0\), \(\tau \ge 0\), \(B\) is the unit ball, \(2^*=\frac{2N}{N-2}\), \(N \ge 3\). Also, the supremum is a maximum for \[ 0<\beta<\min\{\frac{N}{2}, N-2\} \] \[ 1 \le \tau<\infty. \] To apply their result, the authors investigate the semi-linear Poisson equation \[ \begin{cases} \Delta u = h(x,u) &\text{ in }B\\ u=0 &\text{ on }\partial B. \end{cases} \] Assuming \[ h(x,u)= u^{2^*-1}\Big(\ln(\tau+u) \Big)^{|x|^\beta}+g(|x|,u), \] with \(g\) a subcritical perturbation, they obtain the existence of a positive solution in \(B\).
