Hausdorff and packing measures (28A78) Semilinear elliptic equations with Laplacian, bi-Laplacian or poly-Laplacian (35J91)

Abstract: This paper deals with solutions to the equation �egin{equation*} -Delta u = lambda_+ left(u^+ ight)^{q-1} - lambda_- left(u^- ight)^{q-1} quad ext{in $B_1$} end{equation*} where $lambd{a}_{+},lambd{a}_{-}>0$, $qin(0,1)$, $B_1=B_1(0)$ is the unit ball in $mathbb{R}^N$, $Nge2$, and $u^{+}:=maxu,0$, $u^{-}:=max-u,0$ are the positive and the negative part of $u$, respectively. We extend to this class of emph{singular} equations the results recently obtained in cite{SoTe2018} for emph{sublinear and discontinuous} equations, $1leqq<2$, namely: (a) the finiteness of the vanishing order at every point and the complete characterization of the order spectrum; (b) a weak non-degeneracy property; (c) regularity of the nodal set of any solution: the nodal set is a locally finite collection of regular codimension one manifolds up to a residual singular set having Hausdorff dimension at most $N-2$ (locally finite when $N=2$). As an intermediate step, we establish the regularity of a class of emph{not necessarily minimal} solutions. The proofs are based on a priori bounds, monotonicity formulae for a $2$-parameter family of Weiss-type functionals, blow-up arguments, and the classification of homogenous solutions.
