Using variational methods, we establish the existence of infinitely many solutions to an elliptic problem driven by a Choquard term and a singular nonlinearity. We further show that if the problem has a positive solution, then it is bounded…

Equidistribution of the orbits of points, subvarieties or of periodic points in complex dynamics is a fundamental problem. It is often related to strong ergodic properties of the dynamical system and to a deep understanding of analytic…
