On nonnegative entire solutions of second-order semilinear elliptic systems

Tomomitsu Teramoto

Abstract:
We consider the second-order semilinear elliptic system
$$ \Delta u_i=P_i(x)u_{i+1}^{\alpha_i}\quad\hbox{in }\mathbb{R}^N, \quad i=1,2,\dots,m $$
with nonnegative continuous functions $P_i$. We establish nonexistence criteria of nonnegative nontrivial entire solutions for this system. We also proved a Liouville type theorem for nonnegative entire solutions.
