Local Hölder continuity of weak solutions for an anisotropic elliptic equation

We prove, following DiBenedetto’s intrinsic scaling method, that a local bounded weak solution of the equation $$-\sum_{i=1}^{N}\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}\left[\left| \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_i} \right|^{p_{i}-2} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_i} \right]=f $$ in Ω, is locally Hölder continuous, where f is a given bounded function and p _i  ≥ 2, for any i = 1, . . . , N.     

Anisotropic elliptic problems with natural growth terms

In this paper we prove existence and regularity of solutions for nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations of the type $$-\sum_{i=1}^N\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}\left[\left|\frac{\partial u}{\partial {x}_i}\right|^{p_i-2}\frac{\partial u}{\partial x_i}\right]+g(x,u,\nabla u)=f$$ in a bounded, smooth, domain ??, in ${\mathbb{R}^N}$ , with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The right hand side f is assumed to belong to some Lebesgue space and the function g is a nonlinear lower order term.     

On the entire self-shrinking solutions to Lagrangian mean curvature flow

The authors prove that the logarithmic Monge?CAmpère flow with uniformly bound and convex initial data satisfies uniform decay estimates away from time t?=?0. Then applying the decay estimates, we conclude that every entire classical strictly convex solution of the equation $$ \det D^{2}u=\exp\left\{n\left(-u+\frac{1}{2} \sum_{i=1}^{n}x_{i} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{i}} \right)\right\}, $$ should be a quadratic polynomial if the inferior limit of the smallest eigenvalue of the function |x|² D ² u at infinity has an uniform positive lower bound larger than 2(1 ? 1/n). Using a similar method, we can prove that every classical convex or concave solution of the equation $$ \sum_{i=1}^{n} \arctan\lambda_{i}=-u+\frac{1}{2} \sum_{i=1}^{n}x_{i} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{i}} $$ must be a quadratic polynomial, where ?? _i are the eigenvalues of the Hessian D ² u.     

Multibump bound states for quasilinear Schrödinger systems with critical frequency

In this paper, we are concerned with the multibump solutions for the following quasilinear Schrödinger system in ${\mathbb{R}^N}$ : $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll}-\Delta{u} + \lambda{a(x)u} - \frac{1}{2}(\Delta|u|^2)u = \frac{2\alpha}{\alpha + \beta}|u|^{\alpha-2}|\upsilon|^\beta u, \\-\Delta{\upsilon} + \lambda{b(x)\upsilon} - \frac{1}{2}(\Delta|\upsilon|^2)\upsilon = \frac{2\beta}{\alpha + \beta}|u|^\alpha|\upsilon|^{\beta-2} \upsilon, \\u(x) \rightarrow 0, \upsilon(x) \rightarrow 0 \quad as|x| \rightarrow \infty,\end{array}\right.$$ where λ > 0 is a parameter, α, β > 2 satisfying α + β < 2 · 2*, here ${2^{*} = \frac{2N}{N-2}}$ is the critical Sobolev exponent for ${N \geq 3}$ and a(x), b(x) are nonnegative potentials. Using variational methods, we prove that if the zero sets of a(x) and b(x) have several common isolated connected components ${\Omega_{1}, . . . ,\Omega_{k}}$ such that the interior of ${\Omega_{i} (i = 1, 2, . . . , k)}$ is not empty and ${\partial\Omega_{i} (i = 1, 2, . . . , k)}$ is smooth, then for λ sufficiently large, the system admits, for any nonempty subset ${J \subset \{1, 2, . . . , k\}}$ , a solution which is trapped in a neighborhood of ${\cup_{j\epsilon{J}} \Omega_{j}}$ .     

Irrational Factor of Order k and ITS Connections With k-Free Integers

We introduce an irrational factor of order k defined by \({I_{k}(n) ={\prod_{i=1}^{l}} p_{i}^{\beta_{i}}}\) , where \({n = \prod_{i=1}^{l} p_{i}^{\alpha_{i}}}\) is the factorization of n and \({\beta_{i} = \left\{\begin{array}{ll}\alpha_i, \quad \quad {\rm if} \quad \alpha_i < k \\ \frac{1}{\alpha_i},\quad \quad {\rm if} \quad \alpha_i \geqq k \end{array}\right.}\) . It turns out that the function \({\frac{I_{k} (n)}{n}}\) well approximates the characteristic function of k-free integers. We also derive asymptotic formulas for \({\prod_{v=1}^{n} I_{k}(v)^{\frac{1}{n}}, \sum_{n \leqq x} I_{k}(n)}\) and \({\sum_{n \leqq x} (1 - \frac{n}{x}) I_{k}(n)}\) .     

Singularity analysis of Ginzburg–Landau energy related to p-wave superconductivity

The following Ginzburg–Landau energy in the absence of a magnetic field $$E_\varepsilon(\psi) = \int\limits_G\left[\frac{1}{2}|\nabla\psi|^2 + \frac{1}{4\varepsilon^2}(1-|\psi|^2)^2\right]{\rm d}x$$ was well studied during recent twenty years. Here, ${G \subset \mathbf{R}^2}$ is a bounded smooth domain, ${\psi}$ is an order parameter, ${\varepsilon >0 }$ . In particular, several global properties including the weighted energy estimation, the concentration compactness properties and the quantization effect of the energy had been established. This paper is concerned with another Ginzburg–Landau type free energy associated with p-wave superconductivity $$E_\varepsilon (\psi, u; G) = \frac{1}{2} \int\limits_G(|\nabla \psi|^2 + |\nabla u|^2 - |\nabla|\psi||^2){\rm d}x + \frac{1}{4\varepsilon^2} \int\limits_G(1-|\psi|^2)^2{\rm d}x.$$ Here, u is also an order parameter. We will prove that those global properties still hold for this more complicated energy functional. Such global properties describe the locations of the regular and the singular domains, and also show the convergence relation between the Ginzburg–Landau minimizers and the harmonic maps.     

Uniform Mean Value Estimates and Discrete Hilbert Inequalities VIA Orthogonal Dirichlet Series

Let \({\{\lambda_j\}^\infty_{j=0}}\) be a strictly increasing sequence of positive numbers with λ₀ = 0 and λ₁ = 1. We use orthogonal Dirichlet polynomials associated with the arctangent density, to observe that for r > 0, $$\begin{array}{ll}\int^\infty_0\left |\sum\limits^\infty_{n=1}(-1)^{n-1}a_n\lambda^{-irt}_n\right |^2 \frac{dt}{\pi(1 + t^2)}\\ = \sum\limits^\infty_{n=1}(\lambda^{2r}_n - \lambda^{2r}_{n-1})\left |\sum\limits^\infty_{k=n}(-1)^{k-1}\frac{ak}{\lambda^r_k}\right |^2,\end{array}$$ when the right-hand side converges. As a consequence, we obtain uniform mean value estimates, discrete Hilbert type inequalities, and asymptotics as r → ∞ for classes of Dirichlet series.     

Mean Value Properties for the Weinstein Equation Using the Hyperbolic Metric

In this paper we consider solutions of the Weinstein equation $$\begin{aligned} \Delta u-\frac{k}{x_{n}}\frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{n}}+\frac{\ell }{ x_{n}^{2}}u=0, \end{aligned}$$ on some open subset $\Omega \subset \mathbb R ^{n}\cap \{x_{n}>0\}$ subject to the conditions $4\ell \le (k+1)^{2}$ . If $l=0$ , the operator $x_{n}^{2k/n-2}\left( \Delta u-\frac{k}{x_{n}}\frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{n}}\right) $ is the Laplace–Beltrami operator with respect to the Riemannian metric $ds^{2}=x_{n}^{-2k/n-2}\left( \sum _{i=1}^{n}dx_{i} ^{2}\right) $ . In case $k=n-2$ the Riemannian metric is the hyperbolic distance of Poincaré upper half space. The Weinstein equation is connected to the axially symmetric potentials. The solutions of of the Weinstein equation form a so-called Brelot harmonic space and therefore it is known they satisfy the mean value properties with respect to the harmonic measure. We present the explicit mean value properties which give a formula for a harmonic measure evaluated in the center point of the hyperbolic ball. The key idea is to transform the solutions to the eigenfunctions of the Laplace–Beltrami operator in the Poincaré upper half-space model.     

Approximate collocation method for an integral equation with a logarithmic kernel

An integral operator is defined on the set of functions expandable in a Fourier-Chebyshev series. The expansion is used to prove convergence of the proposed method and an error bound is derived.Consider the integral operator L, (1) $$L\varphi = \frac{1}{\pi }\int\limits_{ - 1}^1 {\ln \left| {x - t} \right|\frac{{\varphi (t)}}{{\sqrt {1 - t^2 } }}dt} ,\left| x \right| \leqslant 1.$$      

Sharp Affine and Improved Moser–Trudinger–Adams Type Inequalities on Unbounded Domains in the Spirit of Lions

The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, we prove sharp singular affine Moser–Trudinger inequalities on both bounded and unbounded domains in \({\mathbb {R}}^{n}\). In particular, we will prove the following much sharper affine Moser–Trudinger inequality in the spirit of Lions (Rev Mat Iberoamericana 1(2):45–121, 1985) (see our Theorem 1.4): Let \(\alpha _{n}=n\left( \frac{n\pi ^{\frac{n}{2}}}{\Gamma (\frac{n}{2}+1)}\right) ^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\), \(0\le \beta <n\) and \(\tau >0\). Then there exists a constant \(C=C\left( n,\beta \right) >0\) such that for all \(0\le \alpha \le \left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\) and \(u\in C_{0}^{\infty }\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{n}\right) \setminus \left\{ 0\right\} \) with the affine energy \(~{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) <1\), we have

$$\begin{aligned} {\displaystyle \int \nolimits _{{\mathbb {R}}^{n}}} \frac{\phi _{n,1}\left( \frac{2^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\alpha }{\left( 1+{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) ^{n}\right) ^{\frac{1}{n-1}}}\left| u\right| ^{\frac{n}{n-1}}\right) }{\left| x\right| ^{\beta }}dx\le C\left( n,\beta \right) \frac{\left\| u\right\| _{n}^{n-\beta }}{\left| 1-{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) ^{n}\right| ^{1-\frac{\beta }{n}}}. \end{aligned}$$

Moreover, the constant \(\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\) is the best possible in the sense that there is no uniform constant \(C(n, \beta )\) independent of u in the above inequality when \(\alpha >\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\). Second, we establish the following improved Adams type inequality in the spirit of Lions (Theorem 1.8): Let \(0\le \beta <2m\) and \(\tau >0\). Then there exists a constant \(C=C\left( m,\beta ,\tau \right) >0\) such that

$$\begin{aligned} \underset{u\in W^{2,m}\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{2m}\right) , \int _{ {\mathbb {R}}^{2m}}\left| \Delta u\right| ^{m}+\tau \left| u\right| ^{m} \le 1}{\sup } {\displaystyle \int \nolimits _{{\mathbb {R}}^{2m}}} \frac{\phi _{2m,2}\left( \frac{2^{\frac{1}{m-1}}\alpha }{\left( 1+\left\| \Delta u\right\| _{m}^{m}\right) ^{\frac{1}{m-1}}}\left| u\right| ^{\frac{m}{m-1}}\right) }{\left| x\right| ^{\beta }}dx\le C\left( m,\beta ,\tau \right) , \end{aligned}$$

for all \(0\le \alpha \le \left( 1-\frac{\beta }{2m}\right) \beta (2m,2)\). When \(\alpha >\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{2m}\right) \beta (2m,2)\), the supremum is infinite. In the above, we use

$$\begin{aligned} \phi _{p,q}(t)=e^{t}- {\displaystyle \sum \limits _{j=0}^{j_{\frac{p}{q}}-2}} \frac{t^{j}}{j!},\,\,\,j_{\frac{p}{q}}=\min \left\{ j\in {\mathbb {N}} :j\ge \frac{p}{q}\right\} \ge \frac{p}{q}. \end{aligned}$$

The main difficulties of proving the above results are that the symmetrization method does not work. Therefore, our main ideas are to develop a rearrangement-free argument in the spirit of Lam and Lu (J Differ Equ 255(3):298–325, 2013; Adv Math 231(6): 3259–3287, 2012), Lam et al. (Nonlinear Anal 95: 77–92, 2014) to establish such theorems. Third, as an application, we will study the existence of weak solutions to the biharmonic equation

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \Delta ^{2}u+V(x)u=f(x,u)\text { in }{\mathbb {R}}^{4}\\ u\in H^{2}\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{4}\right) ,~u\ge 0 \end{array} \right. , \end{aligned}$$

where the nonlinearity f has the critical exponential growth.

     

On Some Quasilinear Elliptic Systems with Singular and Sign-Changing Potentials

Using variational methods, we study the existence and nonexistence of nontrivial weak solutions for the quasilinear elliptic system $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll}- {\rm div}(h_1(|\nabla u|^2)\nabla u) = \frac{\mu}{|x|^2}u + \lambda F_u(x, u, \upsilon)\quad {\rm in}\,\Omega,\\- {\rm div}(h_2(|\nabla \upsilon|^2)\nabla \upsilon) = \frac{\mu}{|x|^2}\upsilon + \lambda F_\upsilon(x,u,\upsilon)\quad {\rm in}\,\Omega,\\u = \upsilon = 0 \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad {\rm in}\, \partial\Omega, \end{array}\right.$$ where \({\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N,N \geq 3}\) , is a bounded domain containing the origin with smooth boundary \({\partial \Omega ; h_i, i = 1, 2}\) , are nonhomogeneous potentials; \({(F_u, F_v) = \nabla F}\) stands for the gradient of a sign-changing C ¹-function \({F : \Omega \times \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}}\) in the variable \({{w = (u, v) \in \mathbb{R}^2}}\) ; and λ and μ are parameters.     

Exact multiplicity for the perturbed Q-curvature problem in {\mathbb{R}^N,N \geq 5}

Let N ≥ 5 and \({{\mathcal{D}}^{2,2} (\mathbb{R}^N)}\) denote the closure of \({C_0^\infty (\mathbb{R}^N)}\) in the norm \({\|u\|_{{\mathcal{D}}^{2,2} (\mathbb{R}^N)}^2 := \int\nolimits_{\mathbb{R}^N} |\Delta u|^2.}\) Let \({K \in C^2 (\mathbb{R}^N).}\) We consider the following problem for ? ≥ 0: $$(P_\varepsilon) \left\{\begin{array}{llll}{\rm Find} \, u \in {\mathcal{D}}^{2, 2} (\mathbb{R}^N) \, \, {\rm solving} :\\ \left.\begin{array}{lll}\Delta^2 u = (1+ \varepsilon K (x)) u^{\frac{N+4}{N-4}}\\ u > 0 \end{array}\right\}{\rm in} \, \mathbb{R}^N.\end{array}\right.$$ We show an exact multiplicity result for (P _? ) for all small ? > 0.     

Oscillation theorems for second-order nonlinear delay difference equations

By means of Riccati transformation technique, we establish some new oscillation criteria for second-order nonlinear delay difference equation $$\Delta (p_n (\Delta x_n )^\gamma ) + q_n f(x_{n - \sigma } ) = 0,\;\;\;\;n = 0,1,2,...,$$ when $\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\left( {\frac{1}{{Pn}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{\gamma }} = \infty }$ . When $\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\left( {\frac{1}{{Pn}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{\gamma }} < \infty }$ we present some sufficient conditions which guarantee that, every solution oscillates or converges to zero. When $\sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\left( {\frac{1}{{Pn}}} \right)^{\frac{1}{\gamma }} = \infty }$ holds, our results do not require the nonlinearity to be nondecreasing and are thus applicable to new classes of equations to which most previously known results are not.     

Error function inequalities

We present various inequalities for the error function. One of our theorems states: Let α?≥?1. For all x,y?>?0 we have $$ \delta_{\alpha} < \frac{ \mbox{erf} \left( x+ \mbox{erf}(y)^{\alpha}\right) +\mbox{erf}\left( y+ \mbox{erf}(x)^{\alpha}\right) } {\mbox{erf}\left( \mbox{erf}(x)+\mbox{erf}(y)\right) } < \Delta_{\alpha} $$ with the best possible bounds $$ \delta_{\alpha}= \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} 1+\sqrt{\pi}/2, & \ \ \textrm{{if} $\alpha=1$,}\\ \sqrt{\pi}/2, & \ \ \textrm{{if} $\alpha>1$,}\\ \end{array}\right. \quad{\mbox{and} \,\,\,\,\, \Delta_{\alpha}=1+\frac{1}{\mbox{erf}(1)}.} $$      

Solvability of the Dirichlet problem for degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations

In a bounded domain of the n -dimensional (n?2) space one considers a class of degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations, whose model is the equation $$\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\frac{{\partial F}}{{\partial x_i }}} (a^{\ell _i } (u)\left| {u_{x_i } } \right|^{m_i - 2} u_{x_i } ) = f(x),$$ where x =(x₁,..., x_r), l_i?0, m_i>1, the function f is summable with some power, the nonnegative continuous function a(u) vanishes at a finite number of points and satisfies \(\frac{{lim}}{{\left| u \right| \to \infty }}a(u) > 0\) . One proves the existence of bounded generalized solutions with a finite integral $$\int\limits_\Omega {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {a^{\ell _i } (u)\left| {u_{x_i } } \right|^{m_i } dx} }$$ of the Dirichlet problem with zero boundary conditions.     

The Hardy–Rellich Inequality and Uncertainty Principle on the Sphere

Let \(\Delta _0\) be the Laplace–Beltrami operator on the unit sphere \(\mathbb {S}^{d-1}\) of \({\mathbb R}^d\) . We show that the Hardy–Rellich inequality of the form $$\begin{aligned} \mathop \int \limits _{\mathbb {S}^{d-1}} \left| f (x)\right| ^2 \mathrm{d}{\sigma }(x) \le c_d \min _{e\in \mathbb {S}^{d-1}} \mathop \int \limits _{\mathbb {S}^{d-1}} (1- {\langle }x, e {\rangle }) \left| (-\Delta _0)^{\frac{1}{2}}f(x) \right| ^2 \mathrm{d}{\sigma }(x) \end{aligned}$$ holds for \(d =2\) and \(d \ge 4\) but does not hold for \(d=3\) with any finite constant, and the optimal constant for the inequality is \(c_d = 8/(d-3)^2\) for \(d =2, 4, 5,\) and, under additional restrictions on the function space, for \(d\ge 6\) . This inequality yields an uncertainty principle of the form $$\begin{aligned} \min _{e\in \mathbb {S}^{d-1}} \mathop \int \limits _{\mathbb {S}^{d-1}} (1- {\langle }x, e {\rangle }) |f(x)|^2 \mathrm{d}{\sigma }(x) \mathop \int \limits _{\mathbb {S}^{d-1}}\left| \nabla _0 f(x)\right| ^2 \mathrm{d}{\sigma }(x) \ge c'_d \end{aligned}$$ on the sphere for functions with zero mean and unit norm, which can be used to establish another uncertainty principle without zero mean assumption, both of which appear to be new.     

Pointwise estimates for Lagrange interpolation polynomials

Let f ∈ C[?1, 1]. Let the approximation rate of Lagrange interpolation polynomial of f based on the nodes $ \left\{ {\cos \frac{{2k - 1}} {{2n}}\pi } \right\} \cup \{ - 1,1\} $ be Δ _{n + 2}(f, x). In this paper we study the estimate of Δ _{n + 2}(f,x), that keeps the interpolation property. As a result we prove that $$ \Delta _{n + 2} (f,x) = \mathcal{O}(1)\left\{ {\omega \left( {f,\frac{{\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }} {n}} \right)\left| {T_n (x)} \right|\ln (n + 1) + \omega \left( {f,\frac{{\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }} {n}\left| {T_n (x)} \right|} \right)} \right\}, $$ where T _n (x) = cos (n arccos x) is the Chebeyshev polynomial of first kind. Also, if f ∈ C ^r [?1, 1] with r ≧ 1, then $$ \Delta _{n + 2} (f,x) = \mathcal{O}(1)\left\{ {\frac{{\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }} {{n^r }}\left| {T_n (x)} \right|\omega \left( {f^{(r)} ,\frac{{\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }} {n}} \right)\left( {\left( {\sqrt {1 - x^2 } + \frac{1} {n}} \right)^{r - 1} \ln (n + 1) + 1} \right)} \right\}. $$      

On Uniform Approximation in R2 of Continuous Functions of Two Variables with Bounded Variation in the Sense of Hardy

Introduce the notation: $\mathbb{Z}$ is the set of integers, $\bar {\mathbb{Z}}={\mathbb{Z}} \cup \{-\infty, +\infty\},{\mathbb{R}}_+^2 =\{x=(x_1,x_2) \in {\mathbb{R}}^2; x_1>0,x_2>0\}$ , $g_{k,m} (x,\alpha,h)= \int\limits_0^1 {g_1 (\frac{(k+u)h_1 - x_1}{\alpha_1})g_2(\frac{(m+u)h_2 - x_2}{\alpha_2})}du$ , where $g_i :\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R},x \in \mathbb{R}^2 ,\alpha ,h \in \mathbb{R}_ + ^2 $ . Under certain conditions on the functions g ₁, g ₂, we prove that the system of functions $g_{k,m} (x,\alpha^(n), h^(n)) (k,m \in \bar {\mathbb{Z}})$ , where $\alpha ^{\left( n \right)} ,h^{\left( n \right)} \in \mathbb{R}_ + ^2 $ are arbitrary infinitesimal sequences, is complete in the space C $\mathbb{R}^2 $ of uniformly continuous bounded functions f equipped with the norm $||f|| = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{x \in \mathbb{R}^2 } |f(x)|$ . Starting with the functions g _k,m , it is possible to construct a method for uniform approximating in $\mathbb{R}^2 $ any continuous function of bounded variation in the sense of Hardy. An error estimate is derived in terms of the second order moduli of continuity. Based on the obtained results, we discuss in detail the accuracy of uniform approximation of functions of several variables by linear functions. The error estimates are derived by using second order moduli of continuity. We pay a particular attention to sharpness of constants. Bibliography: 8 titles.     

Semiclassical limits of ground state solutions to Schrödinger systems

This paper is concerned with the existence and concentration properties of the ground state solutions to the following coupled Schrödinger systems $$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\varepsilon ^2\varDelta u+u+V(x)v=W(x)G_{v}(z)~\hbox { in }\ {\mathbb {R}}^N,\\ -\varepsilon ^2\varDelta v+v+V(x)u=W(x)G_{u}(z)~\hbox {in } \ {\mathbb {R}}^N,\\ u(x)\rightarrow 0\ \hbox {and }v(x)\rightarrow 0\ \hbox {as } \ |x|\rightarrow \infty , \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$ and $$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\varepsilon ^2\varDelta u+u+V(x)v=W(x)(G_{v}(z)+|z|^{2^*-2}v)~\hbox {in } \ {\mathbb {R}}^N,\\ -\varepsilon ^2\varDelta v+v+V(x)u=W(x)(G_{u}(z)+|z|^{2^*-2}u)~\hbox {in } \ {\mathbb {R}}^N,\\ u(x)\rightarrow 0\ \hbox {and }v(x)\rightarrow 0\ \hbox {as } \ |x|\rightarrow \infty , \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$ where \(z=(u,v)\in {\mathbb {R}}^2\) , \(G\) is a power type nonlinearity, having superquadratic growth at both \(0\) and infinity but subcritical, \(V\) can be sign-changing and \(\inf W>0\) . We prove the existence, exponential decay, \(H^2\) -convergence and concentration phenomena of the ground state solutions for small \(\varepsilon >0\) .
