Abstract: For any $nge3$, $0<mle(n-2)/n$, and constants $eta>0$, $$, $alpha$, satisfying $$, we prove the existence of radially symmetric solution of $$, $v>0$, in $R^n$, $v(0)=eta$, without using the phase plane method. When $0<m<(n-2)/n$, $nge3$, and $$, we prove that the radially symmetric solution $v$ of the above elliptic equation satisfies $$. In particular when $m=fracn-2n+2$, $nge3$, and $$, the metric $g_{ij}=v^{frac4n+2}d{x}^2$ is the steady soliton solution of the Yamabe flow on $R^n$ and we obtain $$. When $0<m<(n-2)/n$, $nge3$, and $$, we prove that $$ for some constant $A>0$. For $$ or $alpha=0$, we prove that the radially symmetric solution $v^{(m)}$ of the above elliptic elliptic equation converges uniformly on every compact subset of $R^n$ to the solution $u$ of the equation $$, $u>0$, in $R^n$, $u(0)=eta$, as $mo0$.

Review text

The author considers the problem \[ ((n-1)/m)\Delta v^m+\alpha v+\beta x\cdot\nabla v=0,v>0, \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^n, \;v(0)=\eta, \] where \(n\in\{3,4,5,\dots\}\), \(0<m<1\), \(\eta>0\). As an extension of [\textit{D. Panagiota} and \textit{N. Sesum}, ``The classification of locally conformally flat Yamabe solitons (2001), \url{arXiv:1104.2242}], he shows that under the conditions \(m\leq(n-2)/n\), \(\alpha\leq\beta(n-2)/m\), and \(\beta>0\), there exists a radially symmetric solution. In the proof, a modification of the technique of [\textit{S.-Y. Hsu}, Differ. Integral Equ. 18, No. 10, 1175--1192 (2005; Zbl 1212.35150)] is used instead of the phase plane method. Further, asymptotic formulae for a radially symmetric solution \(v\) are derived: If \(m<(n-2)/n\) and \(\alpha=2\beta/(1-m)>0\), then \[ \lim_{| x|\to\infty}| x|^2 v(x)^{1-m}/\log| x|=2(n-1)(n-2-mn)/(\beta(1-m)). \] If \(m<(n-2)/n\) and \(2\beta/(1-m)>\max(\alpha,0)\), then \(\lim_{| x|\to\infty}| x|^{\alpha/\beta} v(x)=A\) for some constant \(A>0\). It is also shown that for \(\beta>0\) or \(\alpha=0\), a radially symmetric solution \(v^{(m)}\) of the above elliptic equation converges uniformly on every compact subset to the solution of an elliptic equation as \(m\to 0\).
