On critical pseudo-relativistic Hartree equation with potential well

Abstrakt

The aim of this paper is to investigate the existence and asymptotic behavior of the solutions for the critical pseudo-relativistic Hartree equation $$ \sqrt{-\Delta+m^{2}}u+(\beta V(x)-\lambda)u =\bigg(\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}\frac{|u(z)|^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}}}{|x-z|^{\mu}}dz\bigg)|u| ^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}-2}u $$% for $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, where $m, \lambda, \beta\in\mathbb{R}^+$, $0< \mu< N$, $N\geq3$, $2_{\mu}^{\ast}=({2N-\mu})/({N-1})$ plays the role of critical exponent due to the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. By transforming the nonlocal problem into a local one via the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, we are able to obtain the existence of the solutions by variational methods. Suppose that $0< \lambda< \lambda_{1}(\Omega)$ with $\lambda_{1}(\Omega)$ the first eigenvalue and the parameter $\beta$ is large enough, we can prove the existence of ground state solutions. Furthermore, for any sequences $\beta_{n}\rightarrow\infty$, we can show that the ground state solutions $\{u_{n}\}$ converges to a solution of $$ \sqrt{-\Delta+m^{2}}u-\lambda u= \bigg(\int_{\Omega}\frac{|u(z)|^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}}}{|x-z|^{\mu}}dz\bigg) |u|^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}-2}u \quad \mbox{in } \Omega, $$ where $\Omega :=\mbox{int} V^{-1}(0)$ is a nonempty bounded set with smooth boundary. By the way we also establish the existence and nonexistence results for the ground state solutions of the problems set on bounded domain.
