Abstract
This article concerns the existence of the least energy sign-changing solutions for the Schrödinger-Poisson system
-∆u + V(x)u + λφ(x)u = ƒ(u), in ℝ3,
-∆φ = u2, in ℝ3
Because the so-called nonlocal term λφ(x)u is involved in the system, the variational functional of the above system has totally different properties from the case of λ = 0. By constraint variational method and quantitative deformation lemma, we prove that the above problem has one least energy sign-changing solution. Moreover, for any λ > 0, we show that the energy of a sign-changing solution is strictly larger than twice of the ground state energy. Finally, we consider λ as a parameter and study the convergence property of the least energy sign-changing solutions as λ ↘ 0.
