We consider the semilinear elliptic equation $$ -\Delta u = |x|^\alpha u^p \quad \hbox{in } \mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $N\ge 3$, $\alpha>-2$ and $p>1$. We show that there are no positive solutions provided that the exponent $p$ additionally…

Let $\L $ be the Laplace operator on $\R ^d$, $d\geq 3$ or the Laplace Beltrami operator on the harmonic $NA$ group (in particular on a rank one noncompact symmetric space). For the equation $ \L u - \varphi(\cdot,u)=0$ we give necessary…
