We consider the minimizing problem for the energy functional with prescribed mass constraint related to the fractional non-linear Schrödinger equation with periodic potentials. Using the concentration-compactness principle, we show a complete classification for the existence and non-existence of minimizers for the problem. In the mass-critical case, under a suitable assumption of the potential, we give a detailed description of blow-up behaviour of minimizers once the mass tends to a critical value.

In this paper, we consider the nonlinear Choquard equation

$$-\Delta u + V(x)u = \left( {\int_{{\open R}^N} {\displaystyle{{G(u)} \over { \vert x-y \vert ^\mu }}} \,{\rm d}y} \right)g(u)\quad {\rm in}\;{\open R}^N, $$

$G(u)=\int ^u_0g(s)\,{\rm d}s$

In this paper, we study the following Kirchhoff-type equation: where a, b are positive constants and N = 1, 2, 3. Under appropriate assumptions on V, K and g, we obtain a ground-state solution by using the approach developed by Szulkin and Weth in 2010.

We study the existence of non-trivial solutions for a class of asymptotically periodic semilinear Schrödinger equations in ℝN. By combining variational methods and the concentration-compactness principle, we obtain a non-trivial solution for the asymptotically periodic case and a ground state solution for the periodic one. In the proofs we apply the mountain pass theorem and its local version.

This paper deals with the existence of solutions to the following system:

$$\left\{\begin{array}{l} -\Deltau+u=\frac{\alpha}{\alpha+\beta}a(x)|v|^{\beta} |u|^{\alpha-2}u\quad\mbox{ in}\mathbb{R}^N\\ [0.2cm] -\Delta v+v=\frac{\beta}{\alpha+\beta}a(x)|u|^{\alpha}|v|^{\beta-2}v\quad\mbox{ in }\mathbb{R}^N. \end{array}\right.$$$\left\{\begin{array}{c}\\ \mathrm{-}\mathit{\Delta u}\mathrm{+}\mathit{u}\mathrm{=}\frac{\mathit{\alpha }}{\mathit{\alpha }\mathrm{+}\mathit{\beta }}\mathit{a}\mathrm{\left(}\mathit{x}\mathrm{\right)}\mathrm{\left|}\mathit{v}{\mathrm{|}}^{\mathit{\beta }}\mathrm{\right|}\mathit{u}{\mathrm{|}}^{\mathit{\alpha }\mathrm{-}\mathrm{2}}\mathit{u}\mathrm{in}{R}^{\mathit{N}}\\ \mathrm{-}\mathit{\Delta v}\mathrm{+}\mathit{v}\mathrm{=}\frac{\mathit{\beta }}{\mathit{\alpha }\mathrm{+}\mathit{\beta }}\mathit{a}\mathrm{\left(}\mathit{x}\mathrm{\right)}\mathrm{\left|}\mathit{u}{\mathrm{|}}^{\mathit{\alpha }}\mathrm{\right|}\mathit{v}{\mathrm{|}}^{\mathit{\beta }\mathrm{-}\mathrm{2}}\mathit{v}\mathrm{in}{R}^{\mathit{N}}\mathit{.}\end{array}\right.$

With the help of the Nehari manifold and the linking theorem, we prove the existence ofat least two nontrivial solutions. One of them is positive. Our main tools are theconcentration-compactness principle and the Ekeland’s variational principle.

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of solutions for a class of noncooperativep-Laplacian operator elliptic system. Under suitable assumptions, weobtain a sequence of solutions by using the limit index theory.

We consider a class of critical quasilinear problems

where 0 ∈ Ω ⊂ ℝN, N ≥ 3, is a bounded domain and 1 < p < N, a < N/p, a ≤ b < a + 1, λ is a positive parameter, 0 ≤ μ < ≡ ((N − p)/p − a)p, q = q*(a, b) ≡ Np/[N − pd] and d ≡ a+1 − b. Infinitely many small solutions are obtained by using a version of the symmetric Mountain Pass Theorem and a variant of the concentration-compactness principle. We deal with a problem that extends some results involving singularities not only in the nonlinearities but also in the operator.
