Abstract

We study an elliptic system coupled by Monge-Amp\`{e}re equations: \begin{center} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} det~D^{2}u_{1}={(-u_{2})}^\alpha, & \hbox{in \Omega,} det~D^{2}u_{2}={(-u_{1})}^\beta, & \hbox{in \Omega,} u_{1}<0, u_{2}<0,& \hbox{in \Omega,} u_{1}=u_{2}=0, & \hbox{on \partial \Omega,} \end{array} \right. \end{center} here Ω\Omega~is a smooth, bounded and strictly convex domain in~RN\mathbb{R}^{N},~N2, α>0, β>0N\geq2,~\alpha >0,~\beta >0. When Ω\Omega is the unit ball in RN\mathbb{R}^{N}, we use index theory of fixed points for completely continuous operators to get existence, uniqueness results and nonexistence of radial convex solutions under some corresponding assumptions on α,β\alpha,\beta. When α>0\alpha>0, β>0\beta>0 and αβ=N2\alpha\beta=N^2 we also study a corresponding eigenvalue problem in more general domains.
