Uniqueness of positive solutions of Δu−u+up=0 in Rn

TL;DR: In this article, the uniqueness of the positive, radially symmetric solution to the differential equation Δu−u+up=0 (with p>1) in a bounded or unbounded annular region in Rn for all n ≥ 1, with the Neumann boundary condition on the inner ball and the Dirichlet boundary condition decaying to zero in the case of an unbounded region, was established.

The concentration-compactness principle in the calculus of variations. The locally compact case, part 2

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated further applications of the concentration-compactness principle to the solution of various minimization problems in unbounded domains, in particular the problem of minimizing nonlinear field equations.

On the method of moving planes and the sliding method

TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified version of the sliding method is used to prove mono- tonicity or symmetry in the zl direction for solutions of nonlinear elliptic equations F(x, u, Du, D~u) = 0 in a bounded domain (2 in R n).

Groundstates of nonlinear Choquard equations: existence, qualitative properties and decay asymptotics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered a semilinear elliptic problem and proved the existence of a positive groundstate solution of the Choquard or nonlinear Schr\"odinger--Newton equation for an optimal range of parameters.
