Abstract: We study singular radially symmetric solution to the Lin-Ni-Takagi equation for a supercritical power non-linearity in dimension Ngeq3. It is shown that for any ball and any kgeq0, there is a singular solution that satisfies Neumann boundary condition and oscillates at least k times around the constant equilibrium. Moreover, we show that the Morse index of the singular solution is finite or infinite if the exponent is respectively larger or smaller than the Joseph--Lundgren exponent.


This article is concerned with the study of positive singular radial solutions of \(-\Delta u+u=u^p\) in \(B_R\setminus\{0\}\) subject to Neumann boundary condition \(\frac{\partial v}{\partial \nu}=0\) on \(\partial B_R\). Here \(B_R\) denotes the open unti ball in \({\mathbb R}^N\), \(N\geq 3\), with radius \(R>0\). The authors show that for any \(k\geq 1\) there is a singular solution that oscillates at least \(k\) times around a constant equilibrium. Further, it is obtained that the Morse index of the singular solution is finite or infinite if the exponent is respectively larger or smaller than the Joseph-Lundgren exponent.
