Abstract

In this paper, we investigate positive solutions to the following H\'enon-Sobolev critical system: div(x2au)=xbpup2u+ναxbpuα2vβuin Rn, -\mathrm{div}(|x|^{-2a}\nabla u)=|x|^{-bp}|u|^{p-2}u+\nu\alpha|x|^{-bp}|u|^{\alpha-2}|v|^{\beta}u\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n, div(x2av)=xbpvp2v+νβxbpuαvβ2vin Rn, -\mathrm{div}(|x|^{-2a}\nabla v)=|x|^{-bp}|v|^{p-2}v+\nu\beta|x|^{-bp}|u|^{\alpha}|v|^{\beta-2}v\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n, u,vDa1,2(Rn),u,v\in D_a^{1,2}(\mathbb{R}^n), where n3,<a<n22,ab<a+1,p=2nn2+2(ba),ν>0n\geq 3,-\infty< a<\frac{n-2}{2},a\leq b<a+1,p=\frac{2n}{n-2+2(b-a)},\nu>0 and α>1,β>1\alpha>1,\beta>1 satisfying α+β=p\alpha+\beta=p. Our findings are divided into two parts, according to the sign of the parameter aa. For a0a\geq 0, we demonstrate that any positive solution (u,v)(u,v) is synchronized, indicating that uu and vv are constant multiples of positive solutions to the decoupled H\'enon equation: \begin{equation*} -\mathrm{div}(|x|^{-2a}\nabla w)=|x|^{-bp}|w|^{p-2}w. \end{equation*} For a<0a<0 and b>ab>a, we characterize all nonnegative ground states. Additionally, we study the nondegeneracy of nonnegative synchronized solutions. This work also delves into some general kk-coupled H\'enon-Sobolev critical systems.
