Abstract: In this work we consider the weakly coupled Schr"odinger cubic system [ �egin{cases} displaystyle -Delta u_i+lambda_i u_i= mu_i u_i^{3}+ u_isum_{j eq i}b_{ij} u_j^2 \ u_iin H^1(mathbb{R}^N;mathbb{R}), quad i=1,ldots, d, end{cases} ] where $1leqNleq3$, $lambd{a}_i,m{u}_i>0$ and $b_{ij}=b_{ji}>0$ for $ieqj$. This system admits semitrivial solutions, that is solutions $mathbfu=(u_1,ldots,u_d)$ with null components. We provide optimal qualitative conditions on the parameters $lambd{a}_i,m{u}_i$ and $b_{ij}$ under which the ground state solutions have all components nontrivial, or, conversely, are semitrivial. This question had been clarified only in the $d=2$ equations case. For $dgeq3$ equations, prior to the present paper, only very restrictive results were known, namely when the above system was a small perturbation of the super-symmetrical case $lambd{a}_{i}equivlambda$ and $b_{ij}equivb$. We treat the general case, uncovering in particular a much more complex and richer structure with respect to the $d=2$ case.
