Abstract

In this paper, we consider the existence, multiplicity and nonexistence of solutions for the following equation \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \begin{aligned} &-\Delta u+\omega u=\mu u^{p-1}+u^{q-1},~ u>0 \quad &&\text { in } \Omega, \\ &u=0 &&\text { on } \partial\Omega, \\ \end{aligned} \end{cases} \end{equation*} with prescribed L2L^2-norm u22=ρ\|u\|_2^2=\rho, where N1N\ge 1, ρ>0\rho>0, μR\mu\in \mathbb{R}, 1<pq1<p\le q, and ΩRN\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N is a bounded smooth domain. The parameter ωR\omega\in\mathbb{R} arises as a Lagrange multiplier. Firstly, when 2<pq2N(N2)+2<p\le q\le \frac{2N}{(N-2)^+} and ρ\rho is small, we establish the existence of a local minimizer of energy. Furthermore, when μ0\mu\ge 0 and Ω\Omega is a star-shaped domain, using the monotonicity trick and the Pohozaev identity, we show that there exists a second solution which is of mountain pass type. Secondly, when μ0\mu\ge 0, N3N\ge 3, 1<p21<p\le 2, qmax{2NN2,3}q\ge \max\left\{\frac{2N}{N-2}, 3\right\} and Ω\Omega is a convex domain, using the moving-plane method, we prove the nonexistence of normalized solutions for large ρ\rho. Finally, when μ=0\mu=0, N3N\ge 3, q=2NN2q=\frac{2N}{N-2} and Ω\Omega is a ball, we give a dichotomy result of normalized solutions for the Br\'{e}zis-Nirenberg problem by continuation arguments.
