From MaRDI portal

Abstract: In this paper we prove a Morse Lemma for degenerate critical points of a function u which satisfies -Delta u=f(u) in B_1, where B_1 is the unit ball of R^2 and f is a smooth nonlinearity. Other results on the nondegeneracy of the critical points and the shape of the level sets are proved.
The author considers the equation \(-\Delta u=f(u)\) within the unit ball in two dimensions assuming that \(f\) is a smooth nonlinearity. He proves a Morse Lemma for the degenerate critical points for a \(C^2\) function \(u\) defined on the unit ball satisfying the above equation. Further, he shows results on the non-degeneracy of such critical points. Additionally, the shapes of the level sets are given.
