Abstract

In this paper, we solve some constrained variational problems on perturbed lattice graphs GG. The first problem addresses the existence of ground state normalized solutions to Schr\"odinger equations \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} &-\Delta_{G} u+\lambda u=\vert u\vert^{p-2}u,x\in G &\Vert u\Vert_{l^2(G)}^2=a. \end{aligned} \right. \end{equation*} We prove that if the graph is obtained by deleting finite edges in lattice graphs while maintaining connectivity, then there exists a threshold αG[0,)\alpha_G\in[0,\infty) such that there do not exist ground state normalized solution if 0<a<αG0<a<\alpha_G, and there exists a ground state normalized solution if a>αG.a>\alpha_G. If the graph is obtained by adding finite edges EE^{'} to lattice graphs, we prove that there exist EE^{'} and a1a_1 such that for all a>a1,a>a_1, there do not exist ground state normalized solutions. The second problem concerns the existence of an extremal function for the Sobolev inequality. If the graph GG is obtained by deleting finite edges in lattice graphs while maintaining connectivity, for the Sobolev super-critical regime, we prove that there exists an extremal function. for the Sobolev critical regime, we prove that there exists GG such that extremal can be attained. If the graph is obtained by adding finite edges EE^{'} to lattice graphs, we prove that there exists EE^{'} such that there does not exist an extremal function.
