Fast decaying ground states for elliptic equations with exponential nonlinearity (Q2213722)

For superlinear continuous functions \(f\), with exponential subcritical or exponential critical growth, the authors use a Trudinger-Moser inequality and lemmas involving the Nehari manifold, to propose conditions under which \[-\operatorname{div}(\exp(|x|^2/4) \nabla u) = \exp(|x|^2/4) f(u) \quad \mbox{in}\quad \mathbb{R}^2\] has a positive minimal energy solution.
