Local behavior of solutions of some elliptic equations

From MaRDI portal





We study the local behavior of solutions of some nonlinear elliptic equations. These equations are of interest in differential geometry and mathematical physics. Our main result reads as follows. Theorem. Let \(u\in C^ 2\) (B\(| \{0\})\) be a nonnegative solution of \[ \Delta u+| x|^{\sigma} u^{(n+\sigma)/(n-2)}=0\quad in\quad B| \{0\}, \] where \(B=\{x\in {\mathbb{R}}^ n:| x| <1\), \(n\geq 3\}\) and \(-2<\sigma <2\). Then u has either a removable singularity at \(\{\) \(0\}\) or \[ \lim_{| x| \to 0} | x|^{(n-2)}(-\ln | x|)^{(n-2)/(\sigma +2)}u(x)=\ell \] exists and \(\ell =((n- 2)/(\sigma +2))1/(\sigma +2))^{(n-2)}\). Furthermore solutions with the behavior above exist.
