Abstract

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of energy and action ground states to the following pseudo-relativistic Hartree equation (c2Δ+m2c4mc2)u+λu=(x1u2)u \left(\sqrt{-c^2\Delta +m^2c^4}-mc^2\right)u + \lambda u = \left(|x|^{-1}*|u|^2\right)u as the speed of light cc\to\infty. We obtain an asymptotic expansion of the ground state as c,c \to \infty, which is new in the case of the energy ground state and generalizes the results of Choi, Hong, and Seok (2018) for the action ground state.
