We study the following version of Hardy-type inequality on a domain $\Omega$ in a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$: $$ \int{\Omega}|\nabla u|_g^p\rho^\alpha dV_g \geq \left(\frac{|p-1+\beta|}{p}\right)^p\int{\Omega}\frac{|u|^p|\nabla…
We consider the problem $-\Delta u+\lambda u=u^{p-1}$, where $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$ verifies $\|u\|_{L^2}=m>0$, and $\lambda\in [0,+\infty)$. Here, $\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega$ is nonempty and compact. We prove the existence of a solution…
