Abstract

We study, in the semiclassical limit, the singularly perturbed nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations LA,Vu=f(u2)u\mboxinRN L^{\hbar}_{A,V} u = f(|u|^2)u \quad \mbox{in } R^N where N3N \geq 3, LA,VL^{\hbar}_{A,V} is the Schr\"odinger operator with a magnetic field having source in a C1C^1 vector potential AA and a scalar continuous (electric) potential VV defined by \begin{equation} L^{\hbar}_{A,V}= -\hbar^2 \Delta-\frac{2\hbar}{i} A \cdot \nabla + |A|^2- \frac{\hbar}{i}\operatorname{div}A + V(x). \end{equation} Here ff is a nonlinear term which satisfies the so-called Berestycki-Lions conditions. We assume that there exists a bounded domain ΩRN\Omega \subset R^N such that m0infxΩV(x)<infxΩV(x) m_0 \equiv \inf_{x \in \Omega} V(x) < \inf_{x \in \partial \Omega} V(x) and we set K={xΩ  V(x)=m0}K = \{ x \in \Omega \ | \ V(x) = m_0\}. For >0\hbar >0 small we prove the existence of at least cuplenght(K)+1cuplenght(K) + 1 geometrically distinct, complex-valued solutions whose modula concentrate around KK as 0\hbar \to 0.
