Abstract

The purpose of this article is two-fold. First, we investigate the inequality Δu+V(x)uf\mboxinB1{0}RN,N2, -\Delta u+V(x) u\geq f\quad\mbox{ in } B_1\setminus\{0\}\subset \mathbb{R}^N , N \geq 2, where fLloc1(B1)f\in L^1_{loc}(B_1). If V0V\geq 0 is radially symmetric, we provide optimal conditions for which any solution 0uC2(B1{0})0\leq u\in \mathcal{C}^2(B_1\setminus\{0\}) of the above inequality satisfies u,Δu,V(x)uLloc1(B1)u, \Delta u, V(x)u\in L^1_{loc}(B_1). This extends a result of H. Brezis and P.-L. Lions (1982), originally established for constant potentials VV. Second, we investigate the equation Δu+λV(x)u=(Kα,βup)uqin B1{0},\displaystyle -\Delta u + \lambda V(x) u = (K_{\alpha, \beta} * u^p) u^q \quad\text{in } B_1 \setminus \{0\}, where 0VC0,ν(B1{0})0\leq V\in \mathcal{C}^{0, \nu}( \overline B_1\setminus\{0\}), 0<ν<10<\nu<1, λ,p,q>0\lambda, p, q>0 and Kα,β(x)=xαlogβ2ex,where 0α<N,βR.K_{\alpha, \beta}(x) = |x|^{-\alpha}\log^{\beta}\frac{2e}{|x|}, \quad\text{where } 0 \leq \alpha < N, \beta \in \mathbb{R}. For N3N \geq 3, we establish sharp conditions on the exponents α,β,p,q\alpha, \beta, p, q under which singular solutions exist and exhibit the asymptotic behavior u(x)x2Nu(x) \simeq |x|^{2-N} near the origin. For N=2N = 2, we provide a classification of the existence and boundedness of solutions based on the local behavior of the potential V(x)V(x) near the origin.
