For $N\geq 3$, by the seminal paper of Brezis and V\'eron (Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 75(1):1--6, 1980/81), no positive solutions of $-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in $\mathbb R^N\setminus \{0\}$ exist if $q\geq N/(N-2)$; for $1<q<N/(N-2)$ the existence…
We study the existence and uniqueness of the positive solutions of the problem (P): $\partial_tu-\Delta u+u^q=0$ ($q>1$) in $\Omega\times (0,\infty)$, $u=\infty$ on $\partial\Omega\times (0,\infty)$ and $u(.,0)\in L^1(\Omega)$, when…
We consider the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation $-\Delta u + V(x) u = \Gamma(x) |u|^{p-1}u$ in $\R^n$ where the spectrum of $-\Delta+V(x)$ is positive. In the case $n\geq 3$ we use variational methods to prove that for all $p\in…

In this paper we prove the following long-standing conjecture: stable solutions to semilinear elliptic equations are bounded (and thus smooth) in dimension $n \leq 9$. This result, that was only known to be true for $n\leq4$, is optimal:…
