Existence of solutions for semilinear problems on exterior domains

Joseph Iaia

Abstract:
In this article we prove the existence of an infinite number of radial solutions to $\Delta u+K(r)f(u)=0$ on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ such that $\lim_{r \to \infty} u(r)=0$ with prescribed number of zeros on the exterior of the ball of radius R>0 where f is odd with f<0 on $(0,\beta)$, f>0 on $(\beta,\infty)$ with f superlinear for large $u$, and $K(r) \sim r^{-\alpha}$ with $ \alpha > 2(N-1)$.
