Proof of a concentration compactness lemma
Hi I'm stuck with the proof of a concentration-compactness lemma.
We have the following equation in $\mathbb{R}^N, N \ge 3$:
$$
-\Delta u +u=|u|^{p-2}u,
$$
where $2 < p < 2^{*}$.
The functional assoc …

Critical points in Hilbert space [closed]
Let $f$ be a $C^1$ functional on a Hilbert space $X$, and $Y$ a closed subspace of $X$.
Suppose the restriction of $f$ on $Y$ has a critical point $x_0 \in Y$.
Q: Is $x_0$ a critical point of $f$?

Periodic orbits of Hamiltonian systems
Consider a second order Hamiltonian system of the type
$$
\ddot{x}+V'(x)=0, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^N.
$$
Under very `natural assumptions' it is possible to prove the existence of a non constant $T$-pe …

Characterization of certain curves of $\mathbb{R}^2$
Let $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a closed simple $C^1$ curve. For every $x \in \mathbb{R}^2\setminus\Gamma$ there exists some $p(x) \in \Gamma$ such that
$$
(H) \quad \text{ dist}(x,\Gamma)=|x-p( …

Convergence of mountain pass solutions of $-\Delta u+u=u|u|^{p-2}$
Consider the following equation in $\mathbb{R}^N, N \ge 3$:
$$
(E) \quad -\Delta u +u=|u|^{p-2}u,
$$
where $2 < p < 2^{*} =2N/(N-2)$.
Denote by $J: H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) \to \mathbb{R}$ the functional th …
