Positive constrained minimizers for supercritical problems in the ball

Abstract

We provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a positive solution to Δu+V(x)u=up-\Delta u+V(|x|) u=u^p in B1B_1, when p is large enough. Here B1B_1 is the unit ball of RnR^n, n greater or equal to 2, and we deal both with Neumann and Dirichlet homogeneous boundary conditions. The solution turns to be a constrained minimum of the associated energy functional. As an application we show that, in case V(x)V(|x|) is smooth, nonnegative and not identically zero, and p is sufficiently large, the Neumann problem always admits a solution.
