Concentrated Energy Peaks: Interior Peak Solutions for Semilinear Dirichlet Boundary Problems

Semilinear elliptic partial differential equations govern a vast array of physical phenomena, from chemical reaction-diffusion waves to biological pattern formation and gravitational field concentrations.

Understanding where solutions concentrate their maximum energy within bounded domains with Dirichlet boundary conditions has challenged mathematicians for decades due to critical Sobolev exponent growth.

Using variational methods, Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, and asymptotic analysis, this research constructs interior peak solutions whose energy clusters tightly around specific critical points of the domain's Green's function.

These rigorous existence and profile proofs provide essential analytical tools for predicting localized chemical concentration spikes, thermal runaway hotspots, and stable localized states in nonlinear physical systems.

Title

Interior Peak Solutions for a Semilinear Dirichlet Problem

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the semilinear Dirichlet problem (Pε):−Δu+V(x)u=un+2n−2−ε, u>0 in , u=0 on ∂, where is a bounded regular domain in Rn, n≥4, ε is a small positive parameter, and V is a non-constant positive C2-function on Ω¯. We construct interior peak solutions with isolated bubbles. This leads to a multiplicity result for (Pε). The proof of our results relies on precise expansions of the gradient of the Euler–Lagrange functional associated with (Pε), along with a suitable projection of the bubbles. This projection and its associated estimates are new and play a crucial role in tackling such types of problems.
