Abstract: We consider the following elliptic system: where is a smooth and bounded domain, is a small parameter, are positive constants and is a coupling constant. We show that there exists an interval and a sequence of numbers such that for any , the above problem has a solution such that both and develop a spike layer at the innermost part of the domain. Central to our analysis is the nondegeneracy of radial solutions in .
