Abstract: Let $Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $mathbb{R}^n$ ($ngeq3$) such that $0inpartialOmega$. In this memoir, we consider issues of non-existence, existence, and multiplicity of variational solutions in $H_{1,0}^2(Omega)$ for the borderline Dirichlet problem, $-Deltau-gammafracu|x{|}^2-h(x)u=frac|u{|}^{2^{s}tar(s)-2}u|x{|}^s$ in $Omega$, where $0<s<2$, $2^{s}tar(s):=frac2(n-s)n-2$, $gammainmathbbR$ and $hin{C}^0(overlineOmega)$. We use sharp blow-up analysis on --possibly high energy-- solutions of corresponding subcritical problems to establish, for example, that if $gamma<frac{n}^{2}4-1$ and the principal curvatures of $partialOmega$ at $0$ are non-positive but not all of them vanishing, then the above equation has an infinite number of (possibly sign-changing) solutions in $H_{1,0}^2(Omega)$. This complements results of the first and third authors, who had previously shown that if $gammaleqfrac{n}^{2}4-frac14$ and the mean curvature of $partialOmega$ at $0$ is negative, then the equation has a positive solution. On the other hand, the sharp blow-up analysis also allows us to prove that if the mean curvature at $0$ is non-zero and if the mass (when defined) does not vanish, then there is a surprising stability under $C^1$-perturbations of the potential $h$ of those regimes where no variational positive solutions exist. In particular, and in sharp contrast with the non-singular case (i.e., when $gamma=s=0$), we show non-existence of such solutions for (E) in any dimension, whenever $Omega$ is star-shaped and $h$ is close to $0$, which include situations not covered by the classical Pohozaev obstruction.
