Abstract: We investigate the asymptotic behavior as $ko+infty$ of sequences $(u_k{)}_{kinmathbbN}in{C}^4(Omega)$ of solutions of the equations $Delt{a}^2{u}_k=V_k{e}^{4u_k}$ on $Omega$, where $Omega$ is a bounded domain of $mathbb{R}^4$ and $li{m}_{ko+infty}{V}_k=1$ in $C_{loc}^0(Omega)$. The corresponding 2-dimensional problem was studied by Br'ezis-Merle and Li-Shafrir who pointed out that there is a quantization of the energy when blow-up occurs. As shown by Adimurthi, Struwe and the author, such a quantization does not hold in dimension four for the problem in its full generality. We prove here that under natural hypothesis on $Delta{u}_k$, we recover such a quantization as in dimension 2.
