Abstract

We consider the following higher order prescribed curvature problem on SN: {\mathbb{S}}^N : \begin{equation*} D^m \tilde u=\widetilde{K}(y) \tilde u^{m^{*}-1} \quad \mbox{on} \ {\mathbb {S}}^N, \qquad \tilde u >0 \quad \mbox{in} \ {\mathbb {S}}^N. \end{equation*} where K~(y)>0\widetilde{K}(y)>0 is a radial function, m=2NN2mm^{*}=\frac{2N}{N-2m} and DmD^m is 2m2m order differential operator given by \begin{equation*} D^m=\prod_{i=1}^m\left(-\Delta_g+\frac{1}{4}(N-2i)(N+2i-2)\right), \end{equation*} where g=gSNg=g_{{\mathbb{S}}^N}is the Riemannian metric. We prove the existence of infinitely many double-tower type solutions, which are invariant under some non-trivial sub-groups of O(3),O(3), and their energy can be made arbitrarily large.
