Abstract

We study the system Δu=uα1u-\Delta \mathbf{u}=| \mathbf{u}|^{\alpha-1} \mathbf{u} with 1<αn+2n21<\alpha\leq\frac{n+2}{n-2}, where u=(u1,,um) \mathbf{u}=(u_1,\dots,u_m), m1m\geq 1, is a C2C^2 nonnegative function that develops an isolated singularity in a domain of Rn\mathbb{R}^n, n3n\geq 3. Due to the multiplicity of the components of u \mathbf{u}, we observe a new Pohozaev invariant other than the usual one in the scalar case, and also a new class of singular solutions provided that the new invariant is nontrivial. Aligned with the classical theory of the scalar equation, we classify the solutions on the whole space as well as the punctured space, and analyze the exact asymptotic behavior of local solutions around the isolated singularity. On the technical level, we adopt the method of the moving spheres and the balanced-energy-type monotonicity functionals.
