Normalized solutions for a fourth-order Schrödinger equation with positive second-order dispersion coefficient (1908.03079v2)

Abstract: We are concerned with the existence and asymptotic properties of solutions to the following fourth-order Schr\"{o}dinger equation \begin{equation}\label{1} {\Delta}^{2}u+\mu \Delta u-{\lambda}u={|u|}^{p-2}u, ~~~~x \in \R^{N}\ \end{equation} under the normalized constraint $$\int_{{\mathbb{R}^N}} {{u}^2}=a^2,$$ where $N!\geq!2$, $a,\mu!>!0$, $2+\frac{8}{N}!<!p!<! 4^{*}!=!\frac{2N}{(N-4)^{+}}$ and $\lambda\in\R$ appears as a Lagrange multiplier. Since the second-order dispersion term affects the structure of the corresponding energy functional $$ E_{\mu}(u)=\frac{1}{2}{||\Delta u||}_2^2-\frac{\mu}{2}{||\nabla u||}_2^2-\frac{1}{p}{||u||}_p^p $$ we could find at least two normalized solutions to (\ref{1}) if $2!+!\frac{8}{N}!<! p!<!{ 4^{*} }$ and $\mu^{p\gamma_p-2}a^{p-2}!<!C$ for some explicit constant $C!=!C(N,p)!>!0$ and $\gamma_p!=!\frac{N(p!-!2)}{4p}$. Furthermore, we give some asymptotic properties of the normalized solutions to (\ref{1}) as $\mu\to0^+$ and $a\to0^+$, respectively. In conclusion, we mainly extend the results in \cite{DBon,dbJB}, which deal with (\ref{1}), from $\mu\leq0$ to the case of $\mu>0$, and also extend the results in \cite{TJLu,Nbal}, which deal with (\ref{1}), from $L^2$-subcritical and $L^2$-critical setting to $L^2$-supercritical setting.
