Sign-changing tower of bubbles for a sinh-Poisson equation with asymmetric exponents
Abstract
Motivated by the statistical mechanics description of stationary 2D-turbulence, for a sinh-Poisson type equation with asymmetric nonlinearity, we construct a concentrating solution sequence in the form of a tower of singular Liouville bubbles, each of which has a different degeneracy exponent. The asymmetry parameter corresponds to the ratio between the intensity of the negatively rotating vortices and the intensity of the positively rotating vortices. Our solutions correspond to a superposition of highly concentrated vortex configurations of alternating orientation; they extend in a nontrivial way some known results for . Thus, by analyzing the case we emphasize specific properties of the physically relevant parameter in the vortex concentration phenomena.
