Abstract:
In this paper we show that, for each $\lambda > 0$, the set of radially symmetric solutions to the boundary value problem \[ \begin {aligned} -\Delta u(x) &= \lambda u(x) + u(x)\vert u(x)\vert , && x\in B := \{x\in R^6\colon \|x < 1\| \},\\ u(x) &= 0, && x\in \partial B, \end {aligned} \] is bounded. Moreover, we establish geometric properties of the branches of solutions bifurcating from zero and from infinity.References
