  • This paper consider that the following semilinear elliptic equation

    {Δu=uq(x)1,  in  B1,u>0,  in  B1,u=0,  in  B1,

    where B1 is the unit ball in RN(N3), q(x)=q(|x|) is a continuous radial function satifying 2q(x)<2=2NN2 and q(0)>2. Using variational methods and a priori estimate, the existence of a positive radial solution for (0.1) is obtained.



    In recent years, the following nonlinear elliptic equation

    {Δp(x)u=f(x,u),in Ω,u=0,on Ω (1.1)

    was studied due to the fact that it can be applied to fluid mechanics and the field of image processing (see [1,2]), where ΩRN(N3) is a bounded smooth domain, pC(¯Ω,R), 1<p=minx¯Ωp(x)p(x)maxx¯Ωp(x)=p+<N, Δp(x)u:=div(|u|p(x)2u) and f:¯Ω×RR.

    In 2003, Fan and Zhang in [3] gave several sufficient conditions for the solvability of nontrivial solutions for problem (1.1). These conditions include either the sublinear growth condition

    |f(x,t)|C(1+|t|p),  for xΩ and tR

    or Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz type growth condition ((AR)-condition, for short): there is θ>p+ such that

    f(x,t)tθF(x,t)>0,  for all xΩ and |t| large enough,

    where C>0, F(x,t)=t0f(x,s)ds, and |f(x,t)t|C(1+|t|p(x)) with p(x)=Np(x)Np(x). Subsequently, Chabrowski and Fu in [4] discussed problem (1.1) in a more general setting than that in [3].

    As is well known, the (AR)-condition ensure the boundedness of Palais-Smale sequence of the corresponding function. However, there are some papers considering the nonlinearity without (AR)-condition. [5] proveed the existence of strong solutions of problem (1.1) without the growth condition of the well-known Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz type. Subsequently, [6] extended the results of [5]. Under no Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz's superquadraticity conditions, [7] and [8] obtained the existence and multiplicity of the solution of problem (1.1) by different methods. In addition, [9] and [10] pointed out the importance of the Cerami condition. In fact, these papers still require nonlinearity to satisfy superlinear growth condition:

    f(x,t)t>p(x)F(x,t),  for all xΩ and |t| is large enough.

    As far as we know, there are few results in the case f(x,t)t=p(x)F(x,t) for some xΩ and |t| large enough. In addition to the eigenvalue problem was studied in [11] and [12], we only see that [13] and [14] discussed the multiplicity of nontrivial solutions and sign-changing solutions, respectively. As described in [15], there are new difficulties in dealing with this situation.

    Let SN=inf0uH10(B1)B1|u|2dx(B1|u|2dx)22 be the best Sobolev constant and B1 be the unit ball in RN(N3), we consider the following elliptic problem

    {Δu=uq(x)1,  in  B1,u>0,  in  B1,u=0,  in  B1, (1.2)

    where q(x)=q(|x|) is a continuous radial function satisfying 2q(x)<2=2NN2 and q(0)>2.

    Theorem 1.1. Let q(x) be a continuous radial function satisfying

    q(x)=q(|x|),   2q(x)q+<2,   q(0)>2.

    Suppose that Ω0={xB1:q(x)=2} is not empty and the measure satisfies

    S1N|Ω0|222<12.

    Then problem (1.2) has at least a positive radial symmetric solution.

    Remark 1.2. In [15], the authors considered the existence of a nontrivial solution of Δpu+up1=uq(x)1, uW1,pr(RN) and u0 in RN for 1<p<N, where Δpu:=div(|u|p2u). They showed that if there exist positive constants R1, R2, C1, C2 and 0<l1, l2<1 such that essinfxBR1{q(x)}>p, q(x)p+C1|log|x||l1 for xRNBR1 and q(x)NpNpC2|log|x||l2 for xBR2, then there exists a nontrivial solution to this equation. However, our Theorem 1.1 allows q(x)=2 for some xB1.

    Remark 1.3. The hypothesis of Theorem 1.1 can not ensure that problem (1.2) satisfies the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz growth condition. Indeed, for the case p(x)2 and f(x,t)=tq(x)1, we have p+=2 and F(x,t)=1q(x)tq(x) for t0. It follows that f(x,t)t=p+F(x,t) for any xΩ0.

    Remark 1.4. In our paper, the L estimate is an essential tool that makes the solution go back to the original problem. The condition of radial symmetry plays a major role in the estimation of the solution.

    According to q(x)2, It is not easy to determine whether the functional I satisfies the Palais-Smale condition. To apply the mountain pass theorem, the first step is to modify the nonlinearity. By the continuity of q(x), 2q(x)q+<2 and q(0)>2, we see that there exist δ(0,14) and r>0 such that

    q(x)2+r, xB2δ;q++r<2, xB1. (2.1)

    Let ψ(t)C0(R,[0,1]) be an even function satisfying ψ(t)=1 for |t|1, ψ(t)=0 for |t|2 and ψ(t) decreases monotonically over R+. Define

    bμ(t)=ψ(μt),         mμ(t)=t0bμ(τ)dτ,

    for μ(0,1]. We consider the auxiliary problem

    {Δu=(1Q(x))(umμ(u))ruq(x)1+Q(x)uq(x)1,  in  B1,u>0,  in  B1,u=0,  in  B1, (2.2)

    where Q(x)=Q(|x|)C(B1,[0,1]) satisfies Q(x)=1 for xBδ and Q(x)=0 for xB1B2δ.

    Theorem 2.1. Assume that q(x)=q(|x|) is a continuous radial function satisfying 2q(x)q+<2 and q(0)>2, the measure of Ω0={x|q(x)=2} satisfies S1N|Ω0|222<12. Then problem (2.2) has at least a positive radial symmetric solution for any μ(0,1].

    Set H10,r(B1)={uH10(B1) | u(x)=u(|x|)}, =()L2(B1). Iμ:H10,r(B1)R by

    Iμ(u)=12B1|u|2dxB1(1Q(x))Kμ(u+)dxB1Q(x)q(x)(u+)q(x)dx,

    where kμ(x,t)=kμ(t)=(tmμ(t))rtq(x)1, Kμ(x,t)=Kμ(t)=t0kμ(s)ds.

    Lemma 2.2. Kμ(x,t) have the following properties:

    Kμ(x,t)1q(x)tkμ(x,t),       Kμ(x,t)1q(x)+rtkμ(x,t)+Cμ,

    for t>0, where Cμ>0.

    Proof. According to the monotonicity of bμ(t), one has

    ddt(tmμ(t))=mμ(t)tbμ(t)m2μ(t)=t(bμ(ξ)bμ(t))m2μ(t)0,

    for t>0, where ξ(0,t). Therefore, tmμ(t) is monotonically increasing on R+. Hence, kμ(x,t)tq(x)1=(tmμ(t))r is also monotonically increasing on R+. It implies that

    Kμ(x,t)=t0kμ(x,τ)dτt0kμ(x,t)tq(x)1τq(x)1dτ=1q(x)tkμ(x,t), (2.3)

    for t>0. Obviously, mμ(t)=Aμ for t2μ, where A=1+21ψ(τ)dτ. For t>2μ, one has

    Kμ(x,t)=2μ0kμ(x,τ)dτ+t2μ(μA)rτq(x)+r1dτ =2μ0(kμ(x,τ)(μA)rτq(x)+r1)dτ+t0(μA)rτq(x)+r1dτCμ+tkμ(x,t)q(x)+r. (2.4)

    Combining (2.3) with (2.4), we obtain Kμ(x,t)1q(x)+rtkμ(x,t)+Cμ for t>0.

    Lemma 2.3. Suppose that q(x)=q(|x|) is a continuous radial function satifying 2q(x)q+<2 and q(0)>2. Then Iμ satisfies the (PS) condition for all μ(0,1].

    Proof. Let {un} be a (PS) sequence of Iμ in H10,r(B1). There exists C>0 such that

    |Iμ(un)|C,     Iμ(un)0 as  n. (2.5)

    By (2.1) and Lemma 2.2, we have

    Iμ(un)12+rIμ(un),un=r2(2+r)un2+B1(1Q(x))(kμ(x,u+n)u+n2+rKμ(x,u+n))dx+B2δ(12+r1q(x))Q(x)(u+n)q(x)dxr2(2+r)un2Cμ,

    which implies that r2(2+r)un2C+Cμ+o(un). We obtain {un} is bounded in H10,r(B1). Up to a subsequence, we may assume that

    {unu,  in  H10,r(B1),unu,  in  Ls(B1),  1s<2.

    It implies that

    uiuj2=Iμ(ui)Iμ(uj),uiuj+B1(1Q(x))(kμ(u+i)kμ(u+j))(uiuj)dx+B1Q(x)((u+i)q(x)1(u+j)q(x)1)(uiuj)dx.

    It follows from (2.5) that

    Iμ(ui)Iμ(uj),uiuj0,     as   i, j+. (2.6)

    It is not difficult to see that

    |kμ(t)||t|q(x)1+(μA)r|t|q(x)+r1.

    By the Sobolev imbedding theorem and 2q(x)<q(x)+r<q++r<2, one has

    |B1(1Q(x))(kμ(u+i)kμ(u+j))(uiuj)dx|CB1(|ui|+|uj|+|ui|q++r1+|uj|q++r1)|uiuj|0 (2.7)

    and

    |B1Q(x)((u+i)q(x)1(u+j)q(x)1)(uiuj)dx|CB1(|ui|+|uj|+|ui|q+1+|uj|q+1)|uiuj|0 (2.8)

    as i and j tend to +. From (2.6)–(2.8), we have uiuj0 as i, j+, which implies that {un} contains a strongly convergent subsequence in H10,r(B1). Hence Iμ satisfies the (PS) condition.

    Lemma 2.4. Iμ has the following properties:

    (1) there exist m, ρ>0 such that Iμ(u)>m for any uH10,r(B1) with u=ρ;

    (2) there exists wH10,r(B1) such that w>ρ and Iμ(w)<0.

    Proof. By definition of the function kμ, we have

    |kμ(t)||t|q(x)1+(μA)r|t|q(x)+r1.

    It follows that

    |Kμ(t)||t|q(x)q(x)+(μA)r|t|q(x)+rq(x)+r.

    Therefore, there exists C>0 such that

    |B1(1Q(x))Kμ(u+)dx+B1Q(x)q(x)(u+)q(x)dx|B1|u|q(x)dx+CB1|u|q(x)+rdx. (2.9)

    By the Sobolev imbedding theorem, it implies from 2q(x)<q(x)+r<2 that

    B1|u|q(x)+rdxB1(|u|2+r+|u|2)dxC(u2+r+u2). (2.10)

    Set Ωε={xB1|2q(x)<2+ε}. By the Sobolev imbedding theorem and the Hölder inequality, we obtain

    B1|u|q(x)dx=Ωε|u|q(x)dx+B1Ωε|u|q(x)dxΩε(|u|2+|u|2+ε)dx+B1Ωε(|u|2+ε+|u|2)dxΩε|u|2dx+B1(|u|2+ε+|u|2)dxS1N|Ωε|222u2+C(u2+ε+u2). (2.11)

    Since S1N|Ω0|222<12, for ε>0 small enough, one has S1N|Ωε|222<14+12S1N|Ω0|222. From (2.9)–(2.11), we obtain

    Iμ(u)(1412S1N|Ω0|222)u2C(u2+ε+u2+r+u2).

    Therefore, there exist m, ρ>0 such that Iμ(u)>m for any uH10,r(B1) with u=ρ.

    Fix a nonnegative radial function v0H10,r(Bδ){0}. We have

    Iμ(tv0)=t22v02Bδ|tv0|q(x)q(x)dxt22v0212Bδ(t2+r|v0|2+r+t2|v0|2)dx<0,

    for t>0 sufficiently large. Choosing w=tv0, we have w>ρ and Iμ(w)<0 for t>0 large enough.

    Proof of Theorem 2.1. By Lemmas 2.3 and 2.4, we know that Iμ satisfy the (PS) condition and the mountain pass geometry. Define

    Γ={γC([0,1],H10,r(B1))| γ(0)=0, γ(1)=w},  cμ=infγΓmaxt[0,1]Iμ(γ(t)).

    We obtain that problem (2.2) has a solution uμ by the mountain pass theorem (see [16]). After a direct calculation, we derive that uμ2=Iμ(uμ),uμ=0, which implies that uμ=0. Hence, uμ0. Since Iμ(uμ)>0=I(0), we have uμ0. One has uμ is a positive solution to problem (2.2) by the Strong Maximum Principle (see [17]).

    It follows from (2.1) that

    cμmaxt[0,1]Iμ(tw)maxt[0,1](t22B1|w|2dxt2+rq+Bδwq(x)dx).

    Therefore, cμ is uniformly bounded. In other words, we have the following results.

    Remark 2.5. cμD, where D is a positive constant independent of μ.

    In this section, we will show that solutions of auxiliary problem (2.2) are indeed solutions of original problem (1.2) for sufficiently small μ.

    Lemma 3.1. If v is a positive critical point of Iμ with Iμ(v)=cμ, then Bδ2(|v|2+v2)dxL, where L is a positive constant independent of μ.

    Proof. From (2.1) and Lemma 2.2, one has

    cμ=Iμ(v)12Iμ(v),v=B1(1Q(x))(kμ(x,v)v2Kμ(x,v))dx+B2δ(121q(x))Q(x)vq(x)dxr2(2+r)B2δQ(x)vq(x)dxr2(2+r)Bδvq(x)dx. (3.1)

    Let φC0(Bδ,R) satisfies |φ(x)|1, φ(x)=1 for |x|δ2 and |φ|4δ. Multiply problem (2.2) by vφ2 and integrate to obtain

    Bδv(vφ2)dx=Bδ((1Q(x))(vmμ(v))rvq(x)+Q(x)vq(x))φ2dx=Bδvq(x)φ2dx. (3.2)

    According to (3.1) and (3.2), we have

    Bδ2(|v|2+v2)dxBδ|v|2φ2dx+Bδ2v2dx2Bδv(vφ2)dx+4Bδ|φ|2v2dx+Bδ2v2dx2Bδv(vφ2)dx+8+δ2δ2Bδv2dx2Bδvq(x)φ2dx+8+δ2δ2Bδ(1+vq(x))dx8+δ2δ2|Bδ|+(2+8+δ2δ2)Bδvq(x)dx8+δ2δ2|Bδ|+(2+8+δ2δ2)2(2+r)cμr.

    It implies from Remark 2.5 that Bδ2(|v|2+v2)dxL, where L is a positive constant independent of μ.

    Lemma 3.2. If v is a positive radial symmetric critical point of Iμ with Iμ(v)=cμ, then vL(B1)M, where M is a positive constant independent of μ.

    Proof. Let α>2 and ζC0(Bδ2,R). On the one hand, by the Young inequality, we have

    Bδ2ζ2vα1Δvdx=(α1)Bδ2ζ2vα2|v|2dx+2Bδ2ζvα1vζdx=4(α1)α2Bδ2ζ2|vα2|2dx+2Bδ2ζvα2vα2ζdx2(α1)α2Bδ2ζ2|vα2|2dxα22(α1)Bδ2vα|ζ|2dx1αBδ2ζ2|vα2|2dxαBδ2vα|ζ|2dx. (3.3)

    On the other hand, one has

    Bδ2((1Q(x))(vmμ(v))rvq(x)1+Q(x)vq(x)1)vα1ζ2dx=Bδ2vq(x)+α2ζ2dxBδ2vαζ2dx+Bδ2vq++α2ζ2dx. (3.4)

    Combining (3.3) with (3.4), and noticing that v is a solution to problem (2.2), we obtain

    Bδ2ζ2|vα2|2dxα(αBδ2vα|ζ|2dx+Bδ2vαζ2dx+Bδ2vq++α2ζ2dx). (3.5)

    Set δk=δ4(1+12k). Let ζkC0(Bδk,R) satisfies the following properties: 0ζk1, ζk=1 for xBδk+1 and |ζk|14(δkδk+1)=2k+1δ. Bδ2 and ζ are taken to be Bδk and ζk in inequality (3.5), respectively. Using the Sobolev embedding theorem, the Hölder inequality and Lemma 3.1, we obtain

    (Bδk+1v2α2dx)22(Bδk(ζkvα2)2dx)22CBδk|(ζkvα2)|2dxC(Bδkζ2k|vα2|2dx+Bδkvα|ζk|2dx)Cα((α+1α)Bδkvα|ζk|2dx+Bδkvαζ2kdx+Bδkvq++α2ζ2kdx)Cα(((α+1α)4k+1δ2+1)Bδkvαdx+Bδkvq++α2dx)Cα(α4k+2δ2|Bδk|q+22+(Bδkv2dx)q+22)(Bδkv2α2q++2dx)2q++22Cα(α4k+2δ2|Bδk|q+22+C(Bδk(|v|2+v2)dx)q+22)(Bδkv2α2q++2dx)2q++22Cα(α4k+2δ2|Bδk|q+22+C(2L)q+22)(Bδkv2α2q++2dx)2q++22Cα24k+1(Bδkv2α2q++2dx)2q++22.

    It implies that

    vL2α2(Bδk+1)(Cα24k+1)1αvL2α2q++2(Bδk). (3.6)

    Set βk=2(2q++22)k for k=0,1,. Then 22q++2βk+1=βk. By (3.6), we have

    vL2βk+1(Bδk+1)(Cβ2k+14k+2)12βk+1vL2βk(Bδk).

    Doing iteration yields

    vL2βk(Bδk)Ckj=112βjΠkj=1β1βjj4kj=1j+1βjvL2(Bδ2)(4C)14kj=1(2β1)j(β12)kj=1j2(2β1)j2kj=1j+12(2β1)jvL2(Bδ2).

    Since β1>2, the series j=1(2β1)j and j=1j(2β1)j are convergent. Letting k, we conclude that

    vL(Bδ4)CvL2(Bδ2)C(Bδ2(|v|2+v2)dx)12M.

    Set ρ=|x|. Since v is positive radially symmetric, one has

    1ρN1ddρ(ρN1dvdρ)=(1Q(ρ))(vmμ(v))ρvq(ρ)1+Q(ρ)vq(ρ)10,

    which implies that ddρ(ρN1dvdρ)0. Notice that ρN1dvdρ|ρ=0=0, we have ρN1dvdρ0. That is dvdρ0. Hence,

    vL(B1)vL(Bδ4)M.

    Proof of Theorem 1.1. By definition of the function mμ, we have mμ(t)=t for t1μ. It is easy to see problem (2.2) reduce to problem (1.2) for |u|1μ. Let μ>1M. We see that a positive solution uμ problem (2.2) is indeed a positive solution of problem (1.2).
