The energy identity of Sacks-Uhlenbeck operator and infinitely many solutions for Brezis-Nirenberg problem

Abstract: Let $\Omega$ be a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}<sup>N$ with $N\geq 3$, $1&lt;\alpha$, $2<sup>{\ast}=\frac{2N}{N-2}$ and ${u_\alpha}\subset H_{0}<sup>{1,2\alpha}(\Omega)$ be a critical point of the functional \begin{equation*} I_{\alpha,\lambda}(u)=\frac{1}{2\alpha}\int\limits_{\Omega} [(1+|\nabla u|^2)^{\alpha}-1 ]dx-\frac{\lambda}{2}\int\limits_{\Omega}u^2dx-\frac{1}{2^{\ast}}\int\limits_{\Omega}|u|^{2^{\ast}}dx. \end{equation*} In this paper, we obtain the limit behaviour of $u_\alpha$ ( $\alpha\rightarrow 1$), energy identity, Pohozaev identity, some integral estimates, etc. And using these results, we prove infinitely many solutions for the following Brezis-Nirenberg problem for $N\geq 7$: \begin{equation*} \left{ \begin{aligned} &-\Delta u=|u|^{2^{\ast}-2}u+\lambda u\ \ \ \mbox{in}\ \Omega,\ &u=0,\ \ \mbox{on}\ \partial\Omega. \end{aligned} \right. \end{equation*}
