We study the existence and the profile of sign-changing solutions to the slightly subcritical problem -Δu = |u|^{2*-2-ε}u in ℬ, u = 0 on ∂ℬ, where ℬ is the unit ball in R^N, N ≥ 3, 2* = 2N/(N - 2) and ε > 0 is a small parameter. Using a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, we discover two new nonradial solutions having three bubbles with different nodal structures. An interesting feature is that the solutions are obtained as a local minimum and a local saddle point of a reduced function, hence they do not have a global min-max description.

Abstract

We study the existence and the profile of sign-changing solutions to the slightly subcritical problem -Δu = |u|^{2*-2-ε}u in ℬ, u = 0 on ∂ℬ, where ℬ is the unit ball in R^N, N ≥ 3, 2* = 2N/(N - 2) and ε > 0 is a small parameter. Using a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, we discover two new nonradial solutions having three bubbles with different nodal structures. An interesting feature is that the solutions are obtained as a local minimum and a local saddle point of a reduced function, hence they do not have a global min-max description.
