In this work, we have proved a version of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for variable exponents. After we use the variational method to establish the existence of solution for a class of Choquard equations involving the $p(x)$-Laplacian operator.
This article is concerned with the existence of positive weak solutions for the following quasilinear Schrödinger Choquard equation: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{cc} \displaystyle -div(g^2(u)\nabla u) + g(u)g'(u)\nabla u + a(x) u = k(x, u) \;\text{in} \; \mathbb{R}^N, \end{array} \end{equation*} where $N \geq 3$, $\displaystyle k(x,u) := h(x,u) + (I_{\vartheta}*|u|^{α\cdot2^*_μ})|u|^{α\cdot2^*_μ-2}u$, $g : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}^+$ is a differentiable even function with $g(0) = 1$ and $g'(t) \geq 0$ for all $t \geq 0$; $h\in C( \mathbb{R}^N \times\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{R})$ and the potentia…
In this paper, we study the following quasilinear Schrödinger equation of Choquard type $$ -\triangle u+V(x)u-\triangle (u^{2})u=(I_α*|u|^p)|u|^{p-2}u, \ \ x \in \mathbb{R}^{N}, $$ where $N\geq 3$,\ $0<α<N$, $\frac{2(N+α)}{N}\leq p<\frac{2(N+α)}{N-2}$ and $I_α$ is a Riesz potential. Under appropriate assumptions on $V(x)$, we establish the existence of positive solutions.
In this paper, we consider the following magnetic nonlinear Choquard equation \[-(\nabla+iA(x))^2u+ V(x)u = \left(\frac{1}{|x|^α}*|u|^{2_α^*}\right) |u|^{2_α^*-2} u + λf(u)\ \textrm{ in }\ \R^N,\] where $2_α^{*}=\frac{2N-α}{N-2}$ is the critical exponent in the sense of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, $λ>0$, $N\geq 3$, $0<α< N$, $A: \mathbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N}$ is an $C^1$, $\mathbb{Z}^N$-periodic vector potential and $V$ is a continuous scalar potential given as a perturbation of a periodic potential. Under suitable assumptions on different types of nonlinearities $f$, n…
We consider the $N$-Laplacian Schrödinger equation strongly coupled with higher order fractional Poisson's equations. When the order of the Riesz potential $α$ is equal to the Euclidean dimension $N$, and thus it is a logarithm, the system turns out to be equivalent to a nonlocal Choquard type equation. On the one hand, the natural function space setting in which the Schrödinger energy is well defined is the Sobolev limiting space $W^{1,N}(\mathbb{R}^N)$, where the maximal nonlinear growth is of exponential type. On the other hand, in order to have the nonlocal energy well defined and prove th…
This paper is devoted to study a fractional Choquard problem with slightly subcritical exponents on bounded domains. When the exponent of the convolution type nonlinearity tends to the fractional critical one in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, we obtain the existence of multiple positive solutions via Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and nonlocal global compactness. Moreover, we prove that the topology of the domain furnishes a lower bound for the number of positive solutions.
In this paper we consider the nonlinear Choquard equation $$ -Δu+V(x)u =\left(\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{G(y,u)}{|x-y|^μ}dy\right)g(x,u)\hspace{4.14mm}\mbox{in}\hspace{1.14mm} \mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $0<μ<N$, $N\geq3$, $g(x,u)$ is of critical growth due to the Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequality and $G(x,u)=\displaystyle\int^u_0g(x,s)ds$. Firstly, by assuming that the potential $V(x)$ might be sign-changing, we study the existence of Mountain-Pass solution via a concentration-compactness principle for the Choquard equation. Secondly, under the conditions introduced by Benci and Cerami \cite{BC1…
In this paper, let $G$ be a Cayley graph of a discrete group of polynomial growth with homogeneous dimension $N\geq3$. We study the Choquard type equation on $G$: \begin{equation} Δu+(R_α\ast\mid u\mid^{p})\mid u\mid^{p-2}u=0, \end{equation} where $α\in(0,N)$, $p>\frac{N+α}{N-2}$ and $R_α$ stands for the Green's function of the discrete fractional Laplace operator, which has same asymptotics as the Riesz potential. We prove the discrete Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality on such Cayley graphs, and by the discrete Concentration-Compactness principle we prove the existence of extremal functions…
In this paper, we study the Brezis-Nirenberg type problem for Choquard equations in $\mathbb{R}^N$ \begin{equation*} -Δu+u=(I_α\ast|u|^{p})|u|^{p-2}u+λ|u|^{q-2}u \quad \mathrm{in}\ \mathbb{R}^N, \end{equation*} where $N\geq 3,\ α\in(0,N)$, $λ>0$, $q\in (2,\frac{2N}{N-2}]$, $p=\frac{N+α}{N}$ or $\frac{N+α}{N-2}$ are the critical exponents in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality and $I_α$ is the Riesz potential. Based on the results of the subcritical problems, and by using the subcritical approximation and the Pohožaev constraint method, we obtain a positive and radially nonincreasi…
In this paper, we study normalized ground state solutions for the following nonautonomous Choquard equation: $$-Δu-λu=\left(\frac{1}{|x|^μ}\ast A|u|^{p}\right)A|u|^{p-2}u,\quad \int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}|u|^{2}dx=c,\quad u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R}),$$ where $c>0$, $0<μ<N$, $λ\in\mathbb{R}$, $A\in C^1(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R})$. For $p\in(2_{*,μ}, \bar{p})$, we prove that the Choquard equation possesses ground state normalized solutions, and the set of ground states is orbitally stable. For $p\in (\bar{p},2^*_μ)$, we find a normalized solution, which is not a global minimizer. $2^*_μ$ and $2_{*…
In this paper, we study a class of the critical Choquard equations with axisymmetric potentials, $$ -Δu+ V(|x'|,x'')u =\Big(|x|^{-4}\ast |u|^{2}\Big)u\hspace{4.14mm}\mbox{in}\hspace{1.14mm} \mathbb{R}^6, $$ where $(x',x'')\in \mathbb{R}^2\times\mathbb{R}^{4}$, $V(|x'|, x'')$ is a bounded nonnegative function in $\mathbb{R}^{+}\times\mathbb{R}^{4}$, and $*$ stands for the standard convolution. The equation is critical in the sense of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. By applying a finite dimensional reduction argument and developing novel local Pohožaev identities, we prove that if the f…
We study the Choquard equation with a local perturbation \begin{equation*} -Δu=λu+(I_α\ast|u|^p)|u|^{p-2}u+μ|u|^{q-2}u,\ x\in \mathbb{R}^{N} \end{equation*} having prescribed mass \begin{equation*} \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}|u|^2dx=a^2. \end{equation*} For a $L^2$-critical or $L^2$-supercritical perturbation $μ|u|^{q-2}u$, we prove nonexistence, existence and symmetry of normalized ground states, by using the mountain pass lemma, the Pohožaev constraint method, the Schwartz symmetrization rearrangements and some theories of polarizations. In particular, our results cover the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev …

The paper is concerned with the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions of the nonhomogeneous Choquard equation over an annular type bounded domain. Precisely, we consider the following equation \[ -\De u = \left(\int_{\Om}\frac{|u(y)|^{2^*_μ}}{|x-y|^μ}dy\right)|u|^{2^*_μ-2}u+f \; \text{in}\; \Om,\quad u = 0 \; \text{ on } \pa \Om , \] where $\Om$ is a smooth bounded annular domain in $\mathbb{R}^N( N\geq 3)$, $2^*_μ=\frac{2N-μ}{N-2}$, $f \in L^{\infty}(\Om)$ and $f \geq 0$. We prove the existence of four positive solutions of the above problem using the Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory …
