Semilinear elliptic equations with Laplacian, bi-Laplacian or poly-Laplacian (35J91)

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.
