4 Introduction In this work we study some results about existence and concentration of solutions of the following NLS equation { ɛ 2 u + V (x)u = f (u) in R N, u H 1 (R N ), (1) where ɛ > 0, f is a subcritical power-type nonlinearity and the potential V is assumed to be positive and satisfy a local condition. The concentration is going to occur around k dimensional spheres, where 1 k N 1, as ɛ 0.

5 Introduction We assume the following conditions on de odd nonlinearity f : (f 1 ) There exists ν > 1 such that f ( s ) = o( s ν ) as s 0; (f 2 ) There exist c 1, c 2 > 0 such that f (s) c 1 s + c 2 s p where 0 < p < 2 2; (f 3 ) There exists θ > 2 such that 0 < θf (s) f (s)s, for s 0, where F (s) = s 0 f (t)dt; (f 4 ) s f (s)/s is increasing for s > 0 and decreasing for s < 0.

6 Introduction Let k N with1 k N 1 and define a subspace H R N such that dim H = N k 1. Hence dim H = k + 1. For x R N, denote x = (x, x ) where x H, x H are such that x = x + x. When u : R N R, we write u(x, x ) = u(x, x ) denoting that u(x, y) = u(x, z) for all y, z H such that y = z. For a R, let u + au = f (u) in R N k. (2) The auxiliar potential M : R N (0, + ] is given by M(x) = x k E(V (x)) where x = (x, x ), x H and x H, where E(V (x)) is the ground-state level of (2) with a = V (x).

7 Introduction V will be assumed to satisfy the following conditions (V 1 ) 0 < V 0 V (x), x R N and V (x) = V (x, x ) = V (x, x ); (M 1 ) There exists a bounded and open set Ω R N such that (x, x ) Ω implies (x, y ) Ω for all y H such that x = y. Moreover, 0 < M 0 := inf M(x) < inf M(x). x Ω x Ω

8 Introdução Introduction The main result is the following Teorema 1.1 Let f and V satisfying (f 1 ) (f 4 ) and (V 1 ) e (M 1 ), respectively. Then for all sequence ɛ n 0, up to a subsequence, (1) (with ɛ = ɛ n ) has a nodal solution u n such that, u n (x, x ) = u n (x, x ) and, if ɛ n Pn 1 and ɛ n Pn 2 are respectively, maximum and minimum points of u n, then ɛ n Pn i Ω, i = 1, 2 for n sufficiently large and ɛ n Pn i x 0, as n, where M(x 0 ) = M 0. Moreover ( ) u n (x) C e β ɛn d k(x,ɛ npn 1) + e β ɛn d k(x,ɛ npn 2 ) x R N, where C, β > 0 and d k is a distance defined in (10).

10 Introduction The works which more have influenced us are [1], in which Alves and Soares prove the existence and concentration of nodal-peak solutions for (1), and [4] where the authors prove the existence of positive solutions concentrating around lower dimensional spheres. In this work we use the penalization technique developed in [5], which consists in modifying the nonlinearity in such a way to recover the compactness of the functional. However, since we are looking for nodal solutions, we have to carry more thoroughly the penalization and as a consequence, make sharper estimates to prove that the solutions of the modified problem, satisfies the original one.

11 Apresentação 1 Introduction

12 For τ > 2, let r ɛ > 0 be such that f (rɛ) r ɛ = ɛ τ and f ( rɛ) r ɛ = ɛ τ. Since r ɛ 0 as ɛ 0, (f 1 ) implies that ɛ τ = f ( rɛ ) r ɛ r ɛ ν 1. Hence ɛ τ ν 1 rɛ and we can choose an odd function f ɛ C 1 (R) satisfying { f (s) if s f 1 ɛ (s) = 2 ɛ τ ν 1, ɛ τ s if s ɛ τ ν 1, f ɛ (s) ɛ τ s for all s R (3) and 0 f ɛ (s) 2ɛ τ for all s R. (4)

13 Introduction Penalization

14 Let g ɛ (x, s) := χ Ω (x)f (s) + (1 χ Ω (x)) f ɛ (s). By (f 1 ) (f 4 ) it follows that g is such that g ɛ (x, x, s) = g ɛ (x, x, s) and satisfies (g 1 ) g ɛ (x, s) = o( s ν ), as s 0, uniformly in compact sets of R N ; (g 2 ) There exist c 1, c 2 > 0 such that g ɛ (x, s) c 1 s + c 2 s p where 1 < p < N+2 N 2 ; (g 3 ) There exists θ > 2 such that: i) 0 < θg ɛ (x, s) g ɛ (x, s)s, para x Ω and s 0, ii) 0 < 2G ɛ (x, s) g ɛ (x, s)s, for x R N \Ω and s 0, where G ɛ (x, s) = s 0 g ɛ(x, t)dt. (g 4 ) s gɛ(x,s) s is nondecreasing for s > 0 and nonincreasing for s < 0, for all x R N.

15 Let us consider the modified problem or equivalently, ɛ 2 u + V (x)u = g ɛ (x, u) in R N, (5) v + V (ɛx)v = g ɛ (ɛx, u) in R N. (6)

16 In order to obtain the solutions with the prescribed symmetry, let { } H := v H 1 (R N ); ( v 2 +V (ɛx)v 2 ) < + and v(x, x ) = v(x, x ) which is a Hilbert space when endowed with the inner product u, v ɛ = ( u v + V (ɛx)uv), which gives rise to the norm ( v ɛ = ( v 2 + V (ɛx)v 2 ) 1 2.

17 Let I ɛ : H 1 (R N ) R be the C 2 (H 1 (R N ), R) functional defined by I ɛ (v) = 1 ( v 2 + V (ɛx)v 2 ) G ɛ (ɛx, v). 2 Note that I ɛ(v)ϕ = ( v ϕ + V (ɛx)vϕ) g ɛ (ɛx, v)ϕ, ϕ H 1 (R N ), and then critical points of I ɛ em H 1 (R N ) are weak solutions of (6). From now on we are going to work with the functional I ɛ restricted to H.

18 Apresentação 1 Introduction

19 Let us consider the Nehari manifold associated to (6) and defined by N ɛ = {v H\{0}; I ɛ(v)v = 0}. Since we are looking for sign-changing solutions, let us consider the Nehari nodal set N ± ɛ = {v H; v ± 0 and I ɛ(v)v ± = 0}, which contains all the sign-changing solutions. Hence, d ɛ := inf N ± ɛ is the nodal ground state level. Let us show that d ɛ is reached by some function in N ± ɛ. I ɛ,

20 Lemma 3.1 Let v H such that v ± 0. Then there exist t, s > 0 such that tv + + sv N ± ɛ. Let (w n ) be a minimizing sequence for I ɛ in N ± ɛ. One can prove that (w n ) is bounded in H and then w n w ɛ in H, w ± n w ± ɛ in H, where w ± ɛ 0. Let t ɛ, s ɛ > 0 be such that t ɛ w + ɛ + s ɛ w ɛ N ± ɛ. Then and t ɛ w + ɛ Ω ɛ F (t ɛ w + ɛ + s ɛ w ɛ ɛ lim inf n t ɛw + n + s ɛ w n ɛ (7) + s ɛ w ɛ ) = lim inf n Ω ɛ F (t ɛ w + n + s ɛ w n ). (8)

21 In this point the penalization in fact plays its role. By (3) and (4), one can see that for sufficiently small ɛ > 0, I ɛ,r N \Ω ɛ (v) := 1 ( v 2 + V (ɛx)v 2) F ɛ (v) 2 R N \Ω ɛ R N \Ω ɛ is strictly convex. Then, it follows that I ɛ,r N \Ω ɛ is weakly semicontinuous from below and then I ɛ (t ɛ w + ɛ + s ɛ w ɛ ) lim inf n I ɛ(t ɛ w + n + s ɛ w n ) lim inf (I ɛ(w + n n ) + I ɛ (wn )) = b ɛ.

22 Hence I ɛ (t ɛ w + ɛ + s ɛ w ɛ ) = b ɛ. Now, arguments similar to those employed in [3] and [2] can be used to, by a contradiction argument, prove that the minimizing of I ɛ on N ± ɛ is a weak solution of (6).

23 Apresentação 1 Introduction

24 Let ɛ n 0 as n and, for each n N, let us denote by v n := v ɛn the solution of the last section, d n := d ɛn, n := ɛn and I n := I ɛn. The following result gives us an estimate from above to the energy levels d n. Lemma 4.1 and lim sup ɛ k nd n 2ω k inf M n Ω ɛ k n v n 2 n C n N.

25 Next result implies that solutions (v n ) do not present vanishing and neither do (v + n ) and (v n ). Lemma 4.2 Let Pn, 1 Pn 2 local maximum and minimum of v n, respectively. Then Pn i Ω ɛn := ɛ 1 n Ω and v n (P 1 n) a and v n (P 2 n) a, where a > 0 is such that f (a)/a = V 0 /2.

26 By the last result there exist P 1, P 2 Ω such that, up to a subsequence Lemma 4.3 lim ɛ np i n n = P i, i {1, 2}. lim n P1 n Pn 2 = +.

27 Lemma 4.4 Let y n = (y n, y n ) R N be a sequence such that ɛ n y n (ȳ, ȳ ) Ω as n. Denoting ṽ n (x, r) := v n (x, x ) where x = r, let us define w n : R N k 1 [ y n, + ) R by w n (x, r) := ṽ n (x, r + y n ). Then there exists w H 1 (R N k ) such that w n w in C 2 loc (RN k ) and w satisfies the limit problem w + V (ȳ, ȳ ) w = g n (x, r, w) in R N k, (9) where g n (x, r, s) := χ(x, r)f (s) + (1 χ(x, r)) f ɛn (s) and χ(x, r) = lim n χ Ω (ɛ n x + ɛ n y n, ɛ n r + ɛ n y n ).

28 Since the concentration set is expected to be a sphere in R N, it is natural to introduce the distance between two k dimensional spheres in R N, which gives rise to neighborhoods in which we want to estimate the mass of solutions. Then let d k (x, y) = (x y ) 2 + ( x y ) 2, (10) which denotes the distance between k dimensional spheres centered at the origin, parallel to H and of radius x and y, respectively.

29 Proposition 4.5 Under assumptions of Theorem 1.1, it holds: i) lim n ɛk nd n = 2ω k inf M. Ω ii) lim M(ɛ np i n n) = inf M, i {1, 2}. Ω The proof of this result consists in an analysis of the parts of the integrals of I n (v n ) in B k (P i, R) and in R N \B k (P i, R).

30 Apresentação 1 Introduction

31 First of all we have to prove the following result. Proposição 5.1 lim v n L n (Ω n\(b k (Pn 1,R) B k(pn 2,R))) = 0. By elliptic regularity theory, it follows that v n C 2 (R N ). Then, by continuity, it follows that v n L ((B k (P 1 n,r n) B k (P 2 n,r n))) = o n (1) (11)

32 Let u n (x) := v n (ɛ 1 n x). In order to prove the exponential decay in ɛ n of u n, we need to consider the following functions W (x) = C(e βd k(x,p 1 n ) + e βd k(x,p 2 n ) ), defined in R N \ ( B k (P 1 n, R) B k (P 2 n, R) ), where C > 0 is a constant to be choosen. For β > 0 sufficiently small, it follows that for all n N and x R N \ ( B k (P 1 n, R) B k (P 1 n, R) ), ( + V (ɛ n x) g ) n(ɛ n, v n ) (W ± v n ) 0. v n

33 Then, by (11), for x ( B k (P 1 n, R) B k (P 2 n, R) ), W (x) ± v n (x) = C2e βr ± v n 0 for a constant C > 0 sufficiently large and which does not depend on n. Hence by(g 4 ), Maximum Principle applies and v n W (x), em R N \ ( B k (P 1 n, R) B k (P 2 n, R) ), which implies that

34 Prova do Teorema 1.1 u n (x) C ( e β ɛn d k(x,ɛ np 1 n ) + e β ɛn d k(x,ɛ np 2 n )), (12) for x R N \ ( B k (ɛ n Pn, 1 ɛ n R) B k (ɛ n Pn, 2 ɛ n R) ). In particular u n L (R N \Ω) Ce β ɛn and then u n satisfies the original problem, proving the theorem.
