Abstract

We study an elliptic equation related to the Moser-Trudinger inequality on a compact Riemann surface (S,g)(S,g), Δgu+λ(ueu21SSueu2dvg)=0,in S,Sudvg=0, \Delta_g u+\lambda \Biggl(ue^{u^2}-{1\over |S|} \int_S ue^{u^2} dv_g\Biggl)=0,\quad\text{in $S$},\qquad \int_S u\,dv_g=0, where λ>0\lambda>0 is a small parameter, S|S| is the area of SS, Δg\Delta_g is the Laplace-Beltrami operator and dvgdv_g is the area element. Given any integer k1k\geq 1, under general conditions on SS we find a bubbling solution uλu_\lambda which blows up at exactly kk points in SS, as λ0\lambda \to0. When SS is a flat two-torus in rectangular form, we find that either seven or nine families of such solutions do exist for k=2k=2. In particular, in any square flat two-torus actually nine families of bubbling solutions with two bubbling points do exist. If SS is a Riemann surface with non-constant Robin's function then at least two bubbling solutions with k=1k=1 exists.
