Abstract

Our main equation of study is the nonlinear Schr¨odinger-Poisson system⇢−Du+u+r(x)fu = |u|p−1u, x 2 R3,−Df = r(x)u2, x 2 R3,with p 2 (2,5) and r : R3 ! R a nonnegative measurable function. In the spirit ofthe classical work of P. H. Rabinowitz [55] on nonlinear Schr¨odinger equations, wefirst prove...
