Abstract: Let Omega be a compact smooth domain containing zero in the Poincar'e ball model of the Hyperbolic space mathbbBn (ngeq3) and let DeltamathbbBn be the Laplace-Beltrami operator on mathbbBn, associated with the metric gmathbbBn=frac4(1|x|2)2ghboxEucl. We consider issues of non-existence, existence, and multiplicity of variational solutions for the borderline Dirichlet problem, �egin{eqnarray*} (E)~ left{ �egin{array}{lll} -Delta_{mathbb{B}^{n}}u-gamma{V_2}u -lambda u&=V_{2^star(s)}|u|^{2^star(s)-2}u &hbox{ in }Omega\ hfill u &=0 & hbox{ on } partial Omega, end{array} ight. end{eqnarray*} where 0leqgammaleqfrac(n2)24, 0<s<2, 2star(s):=frac2(ns)n2 is the corresponding critical Sobolev exponent, V2 (resp., V2star(s)) is a Hardy-type potential (resp., Hardy-Sobolev weight) that is invariant under hyperbolic scaling and which behaves like frac1r2 (resp., frac1rs) at the origin. The bulk of this paper is a sharp blow-up analysis on approximate solutions of (E) with bounded but arbitrary high energies. Our analysis leads to existence of positive ground state solutions for (E), whenever ngeq4, 0leqgammaleqfrac(n2)241 and lambda>0. The latter result also holds true for ngeq3 and gamma>frac(n2)241 provided the domain has a positive "hyperbolic mass". On the other hand, the same analysis yields that if gamma>frac(n2)241 and the mass is non vanishing, then there is a surprising stability of regimes where no variational positive solution exists. As for higher energy solutions to (E), we show that there are infinitely many of them provided ngeq5, 0leqgamma<frac(n2)244 and lambda>fracn2n4left(fracn(n4)4gammaight).
