Multiple solutions to a magnetic nonlinear Choquard equation

We consider the stationary nonlinear magnetic Choquard equation [(-\mathrm{i}\nabla+A(x))^{2}u+V(x)u=(\frac{1}{|x|^α}\ast |u|^{p}) |u|^{p-2}u,\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^{N}%] where $A\ $is a real valued vector potential, $V$ is a real valued scalar potential$,$ $N\geq3$, $α\in(0,N)$ and $2-(α/N) <p<(2N-α)/(N-2)$. \ We assume that both $A$ and $V$ are compatible with the action of some group $G$ of linear isometries of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$. We establish the existence of multiple complex valued solutions to this equation which satisfy the symmetry condition \[ u(gx)=τ(g)u(x)\text{\ \ \ for all}g\in G,\text{}x\in\mathbb{R}^{N}, \] where $τ:G\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{1}$ is a given group homomorphism into the unit complex numbers.

A note on Schrödinger--Newton systems with decaying electric potential

We prove the existence of solutions for the singularly perturbed Schrödinger--Newton system {ll} \hbar^2 Δψ- V(x) ψ+ U ψ=0 \hbar^2 ΔU + 4πγ|ψ|^2 =0 . \hbox{in $\mathbb{R}^3$} with an electric potential (V) that decays polynomially fast at infinity. The solution $ψ$ concentrates, as $\hbar \to 0$, around (structurally stable) critical points of the electric potential. As a particular case, isolated strict extrema of (V) are allowed.

Multi-peak solutions for magnetic NLS equations without non--degeneracy conditions

In the work we consider the magnetic NLS equation (\frac{\hbar}{i} \nabla -A(x))^2 u + V(x)u - f(|u|^2)u = 0 \quad {in} \R^N where $N \geq 3$, $A \colon \R^N \to \R^N$ is a magnetic potential, possibly unbounded, $V \colon \R^N \to \R$ is a multi-well electric potential, which can vanish somewhere, $f$ is a subcritical nonlinear term. We prove the existence of a semiclassical multi-peak solution $u\colon \R^N \to \C$, under conditions on the nonlinearity which are nearly optimal.

Multiple Solutions for a Henon-Like Equation on the Annulus

For the equation (-Δu = | |x|-2 |^αu^{p-1}), (1 < |x| < 3), we prove the existence of two solutions for (α) large, and of two additional solutions when (p) is close to the critical Sobolev exponent (2^*=2N/(N-2)). A symmetry--breaking phenomenon appears, showing that the least--energy solutions cannot be radial functions.

A note on the radial solutions for the supercritical Henon equation

We prove the existence of a positive radial solution for the Hénon equation with arbitrary growth. The solution is found by means of a shooting method and turns out to be an increasing function of the radial variable. Some numerical experiments suggest the existence of many positive oscillating solutions.

Morse index properties of colliding solutions to the $N$-body problem

We study a singular Hamiltonian system with an $\al$-homogeneous potential that contains, as a particular case, the classical $N$--body problem. We introduce a variational Morse--like index for a class of collision solutions and, using the asymptotic estimates near collisions, we prove the non-minimality of some special classes of colliding trajectories under suitable spectral conditions provided $\al$ is sufficiently away from zero. We then prove some minimality results for small values of the parameter $\al$.

On the location of spikes for the Schrodinger equation with electromagnetic field

We consider the standing wave solutions of the three dimensional semilinear Schrodinger equation with competing potential functions $V$ and $K$ and under the action of an external electromagnetic vector field $A$. We establish some necessary conditions for a sequence of such solutions to concentrate, in two different senses, around a given point. In the particular but important case of nonlinearities of power type, we prove that the spikes locate at the critical points of a smooth ground energy map independent of $A$.

On the location of concentration points for singularly perturbed elliptic equations

By means of a variational identity of Pohožaev-Pucci-Serrin type for solutions of class $C^1$ recently obtained, we give some necessary conditions for locating the concentration points for a class of quasi-linear elliptic problems in divergence form. More precisely we show that the points where the concentration occurs must be critical, either in a generalized or in the classical sense, for a suitable ground state function.
