Sharp patterns of positive solutions for some weighted semilinear elliptic problems
2021
This paper deals with the semilinear elliptic problem $$\begin{aligned} {\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u = \lambda m(x)u-[a(x)+\varepsilon b(x)]u^p &{}\text { in } \Omega ,\\ Bu=0 &{}\text { on } \partial \Omega , \end{array}\right. } \end{aligned}$$
where $$p>1$$
, $$\lambda >0$$
, $$m,a,b\in C({\bar{\Omega }})$$
, with $$a \gneq 0$$
, $$b\gneq 0$$
, $$\Omega $$
is a bounded $$C^{2}$$
domain of $${\mathbb {R}}^N$$
(
$$N\ge 1$$
), B is a general classical mixed boundary operator, and $$\varepsilon \ge 0$$
. Thus, a(x) and b(x) can vanish on some subdomain of $$\Omega $$
and the weight function m(x) can change sign in $$\Omega $$
. Through this paper we are always considering classical solutions. First, we characterize the existence of positive solutions of this problem in the special case when $$\varepsilon =0$$
. Then, we investigate the sharp patterns of the positive solutions when $$\varepsilon \downarrow 0$$
and $$\varepsilon \uparrow \infty $$
. Our study reveals how the existence of sharp profiles is determined by the behavior of b(x).
