Abstract

We examine the general weighted Lane-Emden system \begin{align*} -\Delta u = \rho(x)v^p,\quad -\Delta v= \rho(x)u^\theta, \quad u,v>0\quad \mbox{in }\;\mathbb{R}^N \end{align*} where 1<pθ1<p\leq\theta and ρ:RNR\rho: \mathbb{R}^N\rightarrow \mathbb{R} is a radial continuous function satisfying ρ(x)A(1+x2)α2\rho(x)\geq A(1+|x|^2)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}} in RN\mathbb{R}^N for some α0\alpha\geq 0 and A>0A>0. We prove some Liouville type results for stable solution and improve the previous works \cite{co, Fa, HU}. In particular, we establish a new comparison property (see Proposition 1.1 below) which is crucial to handle the case 1<p431 < p \leq \frac{4}{3}. Our results can be applied also to the weighted Lane-Emden equation Δu=ρ(x)up-\Delta u = \rho(x)u^p in RN\mathbb{R}^N.
