The Lin-Ni's Problem for Mean Convex Domains, Paperback / softback Book

The Lin-Ni's Problem for Mean Convex Domains Paperback / softback

Part of the Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society series

Paperback / softback

Description

The authors prove some refined asymptotic estimates for positive blow-up solutions to $\Delta u+\epsilon u=n(n-2)u^{\frac{n+2}{n-2}}$ on $\Omega$, $\partial_\nu u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$, $\Omega$ being a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$.

In particular, they show that concentration can occur only on boundary points with nonpositive mean curvature when $n=3$ or $n\geq 7$.

As a direct consequence, they prove the validity of the Lin-Ni's conjecture in dimension $n=3$ and $n\geq 7$ for mean convex domains and with bounded energy.

Recent examples by Wang-Wei-Yan show that the bound on the energy is a necessary condition.
