Abstract:We study the following Lane-Emden systemwith Ω a bounded regular domain of R N , N ≥ 4, and exponents p, q belonging to the so-called critical hyperbola 1/(p + 1) + 1/(q + 1) = (N − 2)/N . We show that, under suitable conditions on p, q, leastenergy (sign-changing) solutions exist. In the proof we exploit a dual variational formulation which allows to deal with the strong indefinite character of the problem. We establish a compactness condition which is based on a new Cherrier type inequality. We then prove su… Show more
