A Supercritical Elliptic Problem in a Cylindrical Shell

Abstract: We consider the problem [ -Delta u=|u|^{p-2}u in Omega, u=0 on partialOmega, ] where

O m e g a : = (y, z) i n m a t h b b R^{m + 1} i m e s m a t h b b R^{N - m - 1} : 0 < a < | y | < b < i n f t y

,

0 l e q m l e q N - 1

and

N g e q 2

. Let

2_{N, m}^{a s t} : = 2 (N - m) / (N - m - 2)

if

m < N - 2

and

2_{N, m}^{a s t} : = i n f t y

if

m = N - 2

or

N - 1

. We show that

2_{N, m}^{a s t}

is the true critical exponent for this problem, and that there exist nontrivial solutions if

2 < p < 2_{N, m}^{a s t}

but there are no such solutions if

p g e q 2_{N, m}^{a s t}

.
