This article concerns the diffusion system ∂tu−∆xu + V (x)u = g(t, x, v), −∂tv −∆xv + V (x)v = f(t, x, u), where z = (u, v) : R × RN → R2, V (x) ∈ C(RN , R) is a general periodic function, g, f are periodic in t, x and asymptotically linear in u, v at infinity. We find a minimizing Cerami sequence of the energy functional outside the Nehari-Pankov manifold N and therefore obtain ground state so...

This paper is devoted to the existence of positive solutions of a Dirichlet problem with critical exponent and a singular potential. Under various assumption on the domain O; which include some kinds of unbounded domains, we prove the existence of ground states and of symmetric solutions. r 2002 Elsevier Science (USA).

The boundary effects in the open Hubbard chain with boundary fields are studied. The boundary string solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations that give rise to a wave functions localized at the boundary and exponentially decreasing away from the boundary are provided. In particular, it is shown that the correct ground state of the model at half-filling contains the boundary 1-string.

We introduce a complete set of gauge-invariant variables and a generalized Born-Oppenheimer formulation to search for normalizable zero-energy asymptotic solutions of the Schrodinger equation of SU(2) matrix theory. The asymptotic method gives only ground state candidates, which must be further tested for global stability. Our results include a set of such ground state candidates, including one...

this paper is concerned with the following elliptic system:$$ left{ begin{array}{ll} -triangle u + b(x)nabla u + v(x)u=g(x, v), -triangle v - b(x)nabla v + v(x)v=f(x, u), end{array} right. $$ for $x in {r}^{n}$, where $v $, $b$ and $w$ are 1-periodic in $x$, and $f(x,t)$, $g(x,t)$ are super-quadratic. in this paper, we give a new technique to show the boundedness of cerami sequences and establi...
