Liouville type theorem for critical order Lane-Emden-Hardy equations in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (1808.01581v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we are concerned with the critical order Lane-Emden-Hardy equations \begin{equation*} (-\Delta)^{\frac{n}{2}}u(x)=\frac{u^{p}(x)}{|x|^{a}} \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \text{in} \,\,\, \mathbb{R}^{n} \end{equation*} with $n\geq4$ is even, $0\leq a<n$ and $1<p<+\infty$. We prove Liouville theorem for nonnegative classical solutions to the above Lane-Emden-Hardy equations (Theorem \ref{Thm0}), that is, the unique nonnegative solution is $u\equiv0$. Our result seems to be the first Liouville theorem on the critical order equations in higher dimensions ($n\geq3$).
