Eigenvalue problem for a \(p\)-Laplacian equation with trapping potentials




Abstract: Consider the following eigenvalue problem of p-Laplacian equation �egin{equation}label{P} -Delta_{p}u+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u=mu|u|^{p-2}u+a| u|^{s-2}u, xin mathbb{R}^{n}, ag{P} end{equation} where ageq0, pin(1,n) and muinmathbbR. V(x) is a trapping type potential, e.g., inflimitsxinmathbbRnV(x)<limlimits|x|ightarrow+inftyV(x). By using constrained variational methods, we proved that there is a>0, which can be given explicitly, such that problem ( ef{P}) has a ground state u with |u|Lp=1 for some muinmathbbR and all ain[0,a), but ( ef{P}) has no this kind of ground state if ageqa. Furthermore, by establishing some delicate energy estimates we show that the global maximum point of the ground states of problem ( ef{P}) approach to one of the global minima of V(x) and blow up if aearrowa. The optimal rate of blowup is obtained for V(x) being a polynomial type potential.
