Notes

Abstract: In this article we study radial solutions of Δu + K(r)ƒ(u) = 0 on the exterior of the ball of radius R > 0, BR, centered at the origin in ℝN with u = 0 on @BR where ƒ is odd with ƒ < 0 on (0; β), ƒ > 0 on (β;∞),
f(u) ~ uᵖ with 0 < p < 1 for large u and K(r) ~ r⁻ᵅ for large r. We prove that if N > 2 and K(r) ~ r⁻ᵅ with 2 < α < 2(N - 1) then there are no solutions with limᵣ⃯∞u(r) = 0 for sufficiently large R > 0. On the other hand, if 2 < N - p(N - 2) < α < 2(N - 1) and k, n are nonnegative integers with 0 ≤ k ≤ n then there exist solutions, uK, with k zeros on (R,∞) and limᵣ⃯∞u(r) = 0 if R > 0 is sufficiently small.
