Abstract

We are interested in the following semilinear elliptic problem: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u + \lambda u = u^{p-1} \ \text{in} \ T,\\ u > 0, u = 0 \ \text{on} \ \partial T,\\ \int_{T}u^{2} \, dx= c \end{cases} \end{equation*} where T={xRN:1<x<2}T = \{x \in \mathbb{R}^{N}: 1 < |x| < 2\} is an annulus in RN\mathbb{R}^{N}, N2N \geq 2, p>1p > 1 is Sobolev-subcritical, searching for conditions (about cc, NN and pp) for the existence of positive radial solutions. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of cc as λ+\lambda \rightarrow +\infty and λλ1\lambda \rightarrow -\lambda_1 to get the existence, non-existence and multiplicity of normalized solutions. Additionally, based on the properties of these solutions, we extend the results obtained in \cite{pierotti2017normalized}. In contrast of the earlier results, a positive radial solution with arbitrarily large mass can be obtained when N3N \geq 3 or if N=2N = 2 and p<6p < 6. Our paper also includes the demonstration of orbital stability/instability results.
