The paper deals with the equation $-\Delta u+a(x) u +b(x)u^q -u^p = 0$, $u \in H^1(\R^N)$, whith $N\ge 2$, $1<q<p,\ p<{N+2\over N-2}$ if $N\ge 3$, $\inf a>0$, $a(x)\to a_\infty$ and $b(x)\to 0$ as $|x|\to\infty$. When $a(x)\le a_\infty$ and…

We consider the following nonlinear Schrodinger equation [{l} \Delta u-(1+\delta V)u+f(u)=0 in \R^N, u>0 in \R^N, u\in H^1(\R^N).] where $V$ is a potential satisfying some decay condition and $ f(u)$ is a superlinear nonlinearity satisfying…

We say that Wiener's property holds for the exponent $p>0$ if we have that whenever a positive definite function $f$ belongs to $L^p(-\epsilon,\epsilon)$ for some $\epsilon>0$, then $f$ necessarily belongs to $L^p(\TT)$, too. This holds…

This paper treats the existence of positive solutions of $-\Delta u + V(x) u = \lambda f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Here $N \geq 1$, $\lambda > 0$ is a parameter and $f(u)$ satisfies conditions only in a neighborhood of $u=0$. We shall show the…
