A complete scenario on nodal radial solutions to the Brezis Nirenberg problem in low dimensions

In this paper we consider nodal radial solutions of the problem $$\begin{cases} -\Delta u=|u|^{2^*-2}u+\lambda u&\text{ in }B,\\ u=0&\text{ on }\partial B \end{cases}$$ where $2^*=\frac{2N}{N-2}$ with $3\le N\le6$ and $B$ is the unit ball of $\R^N$. We compute the asymptotics of the solution $u$ as well as $||u||_\infty$, its first zero and other relevant quantities as $\l$ goes to a critical value $\bar\l$. Also the sign of $\l-\bar\l$ is established in all cases. This completes an analogous analysis for $N\ge7$ given in [EGPV].
