Abstract: We study the existence of solutions of the following nonlinear Schr"odinger equation �egin{equation*} -Delta u + Big(V(x)-frac{mu}{|x|^2}Big) u = f(x,u) hbox{ for } xinmathbb{R}^Nsetminus{0}, end{equation*} where V:mathbbRNomathbbR and f:mathrmRNimesmathbbRomathbbR are periodic in xinmathbbR. We assume that 0 does not lie in the spectrum of −Delta+V and mu<frac(N−2)24, Ngeq3. The superlinear and subcritical term f satisfies a weak monotonicity condition. For sufficiently small mugeq0 we find a ground state solution as a minimizer of the energy functional on a natural constraint. If mu<0 and 0 lies below the spectrum of −Delta+V, then ground state solutions do not exist.


The authors study the existence of solutions of the following nonlinear Schrödinger equation \[ -\Delta u +\left(V(x)-\frac{\mu}{| x|^2}\right)u = f (x,u) \text{ for }x\in \mathbb R^N \setminus \{0\}, \] where \(V:\mathbb R^N\rightarrow \mathbb R\) and\( f :\mathbb R^N\times\mathbb R\rightarrow \mathbb R\) are periodic in \(x\in \mathbb R^N\). They assume that 0 does not lie in the spectrum of \(-\Delta +V\) and \(\mu<\frac{(N-2)^2}{4}\), \(N\geq 3\). In this paper, the authors assume the nonlinearity \(f\) having superlinear and subcritical growth and satisfies a weak monotonicity condition. For sufficiently small \(\mu\geq 0\) they find a ground state solution as a minimizer of the energy functional on a natural constraint. If \(\mu<0\) and 0 lies below the spectrum of \(-\Delta +V\), then ground state solutions do not exist.
