Asymptotics for a variational problem with critical growth and slightly positive Dirichlet data (Q2518842)

Let \(\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^N\) (\(N>2\)) be a bounded domain with smooth boundary. Denote \(p=(N+2)/(N-2)\) and let \(\varepsilon>0\). This paper deals with the study of the variational problem \[ S_{\gamma,\varepsilon}=\inf_{u\in {\mathcal A}_{\gamma,\varepsilon}}\int_ \Omega | \nabla u| ^2, \] where \[ {\mathcal A}_{\gamma,\varepsilon}= \left\{u\in H^1(\Omega);\;u-\varepsilon\in H^1_0(\Omega),\;\gamma=\int_\Omega | u| ^{p+1}>| \Omega | \varepsilon^{p+1}\right\}. \] The main result of this paper establishes that the solution concentrates at exactly one interior point as \(\varepsilon\) tends to zero. The proof combines variational arguments with a Pohozaev-type identity.
