Abstract

We investigate the Hénon type equation involving the critical Sobolev exponent with Dirichret boundary condition -∆u = λΨu + |x|α u2*-1 in Ω included in a unit ball, under several conditions. Here, Ψ is a non-trivial given function with 0 ≤ Ψ ≤ 1 which may vanish on ∂Ω. Let λ1 be the first eigenvalue of the Dirichret eigenvalue problem -∆φ = λΨφ in Ω. We show that if the dimension N ≥ 4 and 0 < λ < λ1, there exists a positive solution for small α > 0. Our methods include the mountain pass theorem and the Talenti function.
