Abstract

We consider asymptotic behavior of the following fourth order equation Δ2u=ρeu\Omeudxin\Om,u=νu=0onΩ \Delta^2 u= \rho \frac{e^{u}}{\int_\Om e^{u} dx} {in} \Om, u= \partial_\nu u=0 {on} \partial \Omega where \Om\Om is a smooth oriented bounded domain in R4\R^4. Assuming that 0<ρC0<\rho \leq C, we completely characterize the asymptotic behavior of the unbounded solutions.
