      We consider the problem \[ (P_ \varepsilon)\qquad \qquad -\Delta u = N(N-2)u^ p + \varepsilon u,\;u>0 \text{ in } \Omega,\;u = 0 \text{ on }\partial \Omega, \] where \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^ N\) (with \(N\geq 5)\) with a smooth boundary \(\partial\Omega\), \(\varepsilon>0\) is a parameter which will be small and \(p\) the critical exponent, that is \(p=(N+2)/(N-2)\). We are interested in the limiting behavior of solutions \(u_ \varepsilon\) of problem \((P_ \varepsilon)\) as \(\varepsilon\to 0\) when problem \((P_ 0)\) has no solution.
