Blowing up of sign-changing solutions to a subcritical problem (Q487169)

Define by \(S_+^4\) the four dimensional half sphere. Let \(K\) be a \(C^3\) positive Morse function on \(\overline S_+^4\). It is studied the existence of a positive solution of the Neumann problem \(-\Delta_g u+2u=Ku^3\) in \(S_+^4\), \(\partial u/\partial \nu =0\) on \(\partial S_+^4\), where \(g\) is the standard metric on \(S_+^4\). For the study of this problem it is interesting to approach it by a family of subcritical problems \(-\Delta_g u_\epsilon +2u_\epsilon =Ku_\epsilon ^{3-\epsilon }\) in \(S_+^4\), \(\partial u_\epsilon /\partial \nu =0\) on \(\partial S_+^4\), and to study the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions \(u_\epsilon \) as \(\epsilon \to 0\). The paper studies the existence of sign-changing solutions \(u_\epsilon \) of subcritical problems, which blow up at two different points.
