In this article, we study the following Schrödinger equation

\begin{align*}\begin{cases}-\Delta u -\frac{\mu}{|x|^2} u+\lambda u =f(u), &\text{in}~ \mathbb{R}^N\backslash\{0\},\\\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}|u|^{2}\mathrm{d} x=a, & u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^{N}),\end{cases}\end{align*}

where $N\geq 3$, a > 0, and $\mu \lt \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}$. Here $\frac{1}{|x|^2} $ represents the Hardy potential (or ‘inverse-square potential’), λ is a Lagrange multiplier, and the nonlinearity function f satisfies the general Sobolev critical growth condition. Our main goal is to demonstrate the existence of normalized ground state solutions for this equation when $0 \lt \mu \lt \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}$. We also analyse the behaviour of solutions as $\mu\to0^+$ and derive the existence of normalized ground state solutions for the limiting case where µ = 0. Finally, we investigate the existence of normalized solutions when µ < 0 and analyse the asymptotic behaviour of solutions as $\mu\to 0^-$.

We consider positive solutions to a class of quasilinear elliptic problems involving the Hardy potential under zero Dirichlet boundary condition. Via moving plane method, proving a weak comparison principle, we prove symmetry and monotonicity properties for the solutions defined on strictly convex symmetric domains.

Let Ω ⊂ ℝN be a bounded domain and δ(x) be the distance of a point x ∈ Ω to the boundary. We study the positive solutions of the problem Δu + (μ/(δ(x)2))u = up in Ω, where p > 0, p ≠ 1 and μ ∈ ℝ, μ ≠ 0 is smaller than the Hardy constant. The interplay between the singular potential and the nonlinearity leads to interesting structures of the solution sets. In this paper, we first give the complete picture of the radial solutions in balls. In particular, we establish for p > 1 the existence of a unique large solution behaving like δ−(2/(p−1)) at the boundary. In general domains, we extend the results of Bandle and Pozio and show that there exists a unique singular solutions u such that $u/\delta ^{\beta _-}\to c$ on the boundary for an arbitrary positive function $c \in C^{2+\gamma }(\partial \Omega ) \, (\gamma \in (0,1)), c \ges 0$. Here β− is the smaller root of β(β − 1) + μ = 0.

We consider the following equation:

where d(x) = d(x, ∂Ω), θ > –2 and Ω is a half-space. The existence and non-existence of several kinds of positive solutions to this equation when , f(u) = up (p > 1) and Ω is a bounded smooth domain were studied by Bandle, Moroz and Reichel in 2008. Here, we study exact the behaviour of positive solutions to this equation as d(x) → 0+ and d(x) → ∞, respectively, and the symmetry of positive solutions when , Ω is a half-space and f(u) is a more general nonlinearity term than up . Under suitable conditions for f, we show that the equation has a unique positive solution W, which is a function of x 1 only, and W satisfies

We prove the existence of a family of slow-decay positive solutions of a supercritical elliptic equation with Hardy potential

and study the stability and oscillation properties of these solutions. We also show that if the equation on ℝN has a stable slow-decay positive solution, then for any smooth compact K ⊂ ℝN a family of the exterior Dirichlet problems in ℝN \ K admits a continuum of stable slow-decay infinite-energy solutions.

In this paper we consider an elliptic system with an inverse square potential and critical Sobolev exponent in a bounded domain of ${{\mathbb{R}}^{N}}$. By variational methods we study the existence results.
