    This paper mainly studies the properties of minimizers for $L^2$-subcritical constrained variational problems with double-power nonlinear terms. Applying the compactness lemma and some important inequalities, we first prove the existence of minimizers. Based on this, using energy method, blow-up argument and some other methods, we further analyze the limiting behavior of positive minimizers as the attractive strength $\alpha$ among the particles tends to infinity.

    Critical Norm Blow-Up Problem for Supercritical Nonlinear Heat Equation with a Linear Term
    Ting Cheng, Zheyu Jiang, Yuying Wang
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1320-1343. 
    Abstract ( 16 )   RICH HTML   PDF (823KB) ( 17 )   Save

    In this paper, we are concerned with the critical norm blow-up problem to the following nonlinear heat equation

    $\left\{ \begin{aligned}&{u_t} - \Delta u = {\left| u \right|^{p - 1}}u + au,\quad &&(x,t)\in {\mathbb{R}^{n}} \times (0,T), \hfill \\&u( \cdot,0)={{u}_0},\quad \quad \quad \quad \ \quad &&x\in {\mathbb{R}^{n}}, \hfill \\\end{aligned} \right.$

    where $p>1, n\geqslant3, a \leqslant 0$. For $a=0$, Miura H and Takahashi J [Miura H, Takahashi J. arXiv: 2310.09750] have proved that when $p>p_S$, if the maximal time $T$ is finite, then $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to T} \|u( \cdot,t)\|{_{{L^{{q_c}}}({\mathbb{R}^n})}} = \infty $, where $q_c=n(p-1)/2$, $ p_{S} = (n+2)/(n-2).$ For general $a \leqslant 0$, we will prove that when $p>p_S$, we also have $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to T} \|u( \cdot,t)\|{_{{L^{{q_c}}}({\mathbb{R}^n})}} = \infty $.

    Multiple of Normalized Solutions of a Class of Schrödinger Equations with Attractive Coulomb Potential
    Lu Lu
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1344-1359. 
    Abstract ( 12 )   RICH HTML   PDF (713KB) ( 11 )   Save

    In this paper, we focus on the solutions to the Schrödinger equation with attractive Coulomb potential

    $-\Delta u -|x|^{-1}u-|u|^{p-2}u-\lambda u=0,\,\,\,\,\ x\in\mathbb{R}^3,$

    under the normalized constriant

    $\int_{\mathbb{R}^3} u^2(x){\rm d}x=c$

    where $p\in(\frac{10}{3},6), \lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. We show that for small mass, the ground states exist and correspond to local minima of the associated energy functional. The existence of the excited states is also obtained. We next prove that the excited states are located at a mountain-pass level of energy functional. Finally, the existence of infinitely many high energy solutions is established by using a minimax procedure.

    Standing Waves for a Gauged Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with Indefinite Potential
    Xuetong Ding, Wentao Huang
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1360-1373. 
    Abstract ( 17 )   RICH HTML   PDF (719KB) ( 7 )   Save

    In this paper, we mainly study the existence of standing wave solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger equations with the Chern-Simons gauge field on the plane. Compared with most existing works in the literature, the main novelty of this paper lies in allowing the sign of the Schrödinger operator $-\Delta+V$ to be indefinite, so that the corresponding variational functional does not satisfy the mountain pass geometry. By using a local linking technique and the infinite-dimensional Morse theory, we obtain a nontrivial solution to the problem. Moreover, under the assumption that the nonlinearity is odd, we establish the existence of infinitely many high-energy solutions via the fountain theorem.

    Free Boundary Problem for the Spherically Symmetric Non-Isentropic Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations
    Wenchao Dong, Zhenhua Guo, Zhenjia Li

    Abstract ( 18 )   RICH HTML   PDF (736KB) ( 6 )   Save

    Research on the global well-posedness for the non-isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with large initial data, where the transport coefficients depend on temperature, has primarily focused on the one-dimensional case, while results in higher dimensions remain relatively scarce. This paper studies a free boundary problem for the three-dimensional spherically symmetric non-isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations, assuming constant viscosity and heat conductivity depending on both temperature and density. Under the condition that the initial data belong to the $H^1$ space, we establish the existence and uniqueness of global strong solution.

    In this paper, by applying a new minimax principle, we study the existence of multi-peak solutions to the Neumann problem for the $p$-Laplace equation

    $-\varepsilon^p \Delta_p u = f(u) - u^{p-1} \ \ x\in \Omega,$

    where $\Omega$ is a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $1<p<n$, $\varepsilon>0$ is a small parameter, and $f$ is a superlinear subcritical nonlinearity.

    In this paper, assume that $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ be self-adjoint operators, and the corresponding heat semigroups ${\rm e}^{-tL_{1}}$ and ${\rm e}^{-tL_{2}}$ satisfy off-diagonal estimates of type ($GGE_{p_{0},m}$) for some $p_{0}\in [1,2)$, we introduce the Hardy space $H_{L_{1}, L_{2}}(\mathbb{R}^{n_{1}}\times \mathbb{R}^{n_{2}})$ associated to $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ in terms of the area function, and establish the molecular decomposition by using the theory of tent space on product domain.

    In this paper, we employ the constrained variational method to investigate the optimal parameter range for the existence and non-existence of ground states to a class of Schrödinger equations with inhomogeneous terms in three-dimensional space, and discusses the mass concentration behavior of the ground states with respect to the variation of the parameter.

    Nontrivial Solution for the Kirchhoff Type Quasilinear Schrödinger-Poisson Systems with Indefinite Potentials
    Guzhen Huang, Li Wang, Jixiu Wang
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1428-1442. 
    Abstract ( 12 )   RICH HTML   PDF (780KB) ( 4 )   Save

    In this paper, we investigate the Kirchhoff type Quasilinear Schrödinger-Poisson systems:

    $\begin{align*} \begin{cases} -\left(a+b\int_{\mathbf{R}^{3}}|\nabla u|^{2}\mathrm{d} x\right)\Delta u + V(x)u + \phi u = f(x, u), & x \in \mathbf{R}^{3}, \\ -\Delta\phi - \varepsilon^{4}\Delta_{4}\phi = u^{2}, & x \in \mathbf{R}^{3}, \end{cases} \end{align*}$

    where the potential $V$ is indefinite, leading the Schrödinger operator $ -\Delta + V $ exhibit a finite-dimensional negative space. By Morse theory, we prove the existence of nontrivial solutions to this system. It also discusses the asymptotic behavior of the solution as $\varepsilon \to 0$ and $b \to 0$ separately.

    Existence of Nontrivial Solutions for a Schrödinger-Bopp-Podolsky System in $\mathbf{R}^3$ with Periodic Potentials
    Zixing Cai, Li Wang, Yuchen Yang
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1443-1457. 
    Abstract ( 14 )   RICH HTML   PDF (756KB) ( 6 )   Save

    In this paper, we investigate the following Schrödinger-Bopp-Podolsky system in $\mathbf{R}^3$:

    $\left\{\begin{aligned}&-\left( a+b\int_{\mathbf{R}^3}|\nabla u|^2\,\mathrm{d}x\right) \Delta u + V(x)u+\lambda\phi u = f(x,u), && x \in \mathbf{R}^3, \\&-\Delta \phi+d^2\Delta ^{2}\phi = \lambda u^2, && x \in \mathbf{R}^3,\end{aligned}\right.$

    where $a,$ $b>0$ are constants, $\lambda,$ $d$ are positive parameters, $V(x)$ is a continuous and periodic potential function with positive infimum, $f(x,t)\in C(\mathbf{R}^3\times\mathbf{R},\mathbf{R})$ is periodic in $x.$ Under $f(x,t)$ satisfying some superquadratic growth conditions with respect to $t,$ by combining variational methods with a truncation technique, we obtain one nontrivial solution for $\lambda$ small enough and $ d$ fixed. The asymptotic behavior of this solution is also discussed in this paper. Our results generalize and improve some recent results in the literature.

    On Minimizers of a Ginzburg-Landau Model with a Fixed-Degree Boundary Condition
    Qi Gao, Wei Shi

    Abstract ( 6 )   RICH HTML   PDF (645KB) ( 4 )   Save

    The two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau (GL) model with a magnetic field holds significant importance in physics and considerable interest in mathematics. In this paper, we examine two distinct types of GL models: one describing thin-film superconductors and the other modeling rotating superfluids. First, we compare the corresponding energy functionals and demonstrate that they become comparable when the GL parameter $\lambda$ is sufficiently large. Subsequently, we further investigate the minimization problem for the energy functional associated with rotating superfluids over an annular domain with a fixed-degree boundary condition. Our analysis reveals that the boundary degree condition influences the existence of minimizers when the GL parameter is large.

    In this paper, we deal with a Choquard-type equation with Hardy potential

    $ \begin{cases} -\Delta u-\lambda u-\mu\displaystyle\frac{u}{|x|^2}=\bigl(I_\alpha* | u|^{\bar p}\bigr)|u |^{{\bar p}-2}u+f(x,u),\\ u\in H^1_0(\Omega), \end{cases} $

    where $N\geq 3, 0 < \mu < \dfrac{(N-2)^{2}}{4}$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ is a bounded domain, $\bar{p}= \dfrac{N+\alpha}{N-2}$ is the upper critical exponent of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Through a compactness analysis of the functional corresponding to the above equation, we obtain the existence of positive solutions.

    Chemotaxis Models with Anisotropic Diffusion Derived from Langevin Stochastic Equations

    Abstract ( 7 )   RICH HTML   PDF (862KB) ( 3 )   Save

    This paper proposes and discusses a Langevin type stochastic chemotaxis model which assumes that the statistical increment of cell motion results from the fluctuation of cell velocity. The main purpose of present work is to derive the well-known Keller-Segel model of population chemotaxis from the proposed stochastic model and establish the connection between the stochastic and deterministic chemotaxis model. We first derive the mean-field chemotaxis model (i.e. Fokker-Planck equation) corresponding to the Langevin stochastic chemotaxis model by means of the mean field theory. Then based on the mean-field chemotaxis model, we derive the classical Keller-Segel model by using the minimization principle, moment closure approach, approximation technique and scaling argument. The relationship between microscopic and macroscopic parameters is explicitly identified. Moreover an analytical approximation of the probability density function of the Langevin stochastic chemotaxis model is found by minimizing the free energy of the mean-field model. The biological implications are discussed along the studies.

    This paper studies standing wave solutions for a class of nonlinear Schrödinger system (involving three-wave interactions) that describe the Raman amplification model in plasmas within the non-focusing regime. For spatial dimension $N=4$, the existence and nonexistence of ground state solutions are established by means of variational methods and compactness analysis. Furthermore, the asymptotic behavior of the ground states under synchronized mass variations is characterized, and a precise correspondence with the Thomas-Fermi limit is established. This work extends and generalizes the results of [Forcella L, Luo X, Yang T, et al. arXiv: 2210.07643] to higher dimensions.

We do not require strong regularity assumptions on the solutions we study.

    Existence and Nonexistence of Ground State Normalized Solutions for Schrödinger Equations with Nonlinear Terms Satisfying the Negative Strongly Sublinear Growth Condition Near the Origin
    Shujuan Fu, Qihan He, Yuxin Su, Lianfeng Yang
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2026, 46 (4):  1554-1571. 
    Abstract ( 11 )   RICH HTML   PDF (716KB) ( 7 )   Save

    This paper is devoted to the study of the existence of normalized solutions for the following Schrödinger equation

    $\left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u+V(x)u+\lambda u=\beta_1 (I_\alpha*(Q(y)G(u)))Q(x)g(u)+\beta_2f(u),\\ \|u\|_2^2 = a \end{array} \right.$

    where $\lambda\in \mathbb{R}$ denotes the Lagrange multiplier, $\alpha\in (0, N)$, $\beta_1\geq 0$, $\beta_2>0$, and $I_\alpha: \mathbb{R}^{N} \to \mathbb{R}$ is the Riesz potential. Here, $G(s)=\int_0^s g(t)\mathrm{d}t$, and $f$ satisfies the negative strongly sublinear growth condition near the origin, i.e., $f(s)/s \to -\infty$ as $s \to 0$. By imposing appropriate conditions on $V(x)$, $Q(x)$, $f$ and $g$, and combining the energy comparison method, Lions' vanishing lemma, and the Brezis-Lieb lemma, we establish the following results: there exists a constant $a_0$ such that for $0<a<a_0$, the above equation admits at least one normalized solution $(u,\lambda)\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N)\times \mathbb{R}$, which is exactly a ground state normalized solution. Meanwhile, under weaker conditions, we prove that no ground state normalized solution exists for the equation when $a>a_0$.

    This study investigates the existence of non-trivial classical solutions for a class of parameterized quasilinear Schrödinger equations containing logarithmic nonlinear terms:

    $ -\Delta u + V(x)u + \frac{\kappa}{2} [\Delta |u|^2 ]u = u\log (1 + |u|^2), \quad x\in \mathbb{R}^N $

    where $N \geq 3$, $\kappa > 0$ is a parameter, and $V:\mathbb{R}^{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a continuous function. The model holds significant importance in plasma physics and nonlinear optics. By combining variational methods and perturbation techniques, we demonstrate that non-trivial solutions exist for sufficiently small parameters $\kappa$, and establish $L^{\infty}$ estimates for these solutions.

    We consider Mean Field Games system posed on the bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, which arises in Economics and Finance. In the limit as the nonlinearity exponent $p \to \infty$, we construct a multi-spikes solution via using the so-called inner-outer scheme. Notably, the spike location include both in $\Omega$ and on boundary $\partial \Omega$.

    Exsitence of Bubble-Tower Solutions for a Supercritical Elliptic Equation

    This paper study the following supercritical Hénon-type problem

    $\begin{cases} -\Delta u+ \lambda V(y) u=|y|^{\alpha}u^{p_\alpha+\varepsilon}, & \text{in} B_1(0), \\ u(y)>0, &\text{in} B_1(0),\\ u(y) =0, & \text{on} \partial B_1(0), \end{cases}$

    where $B_1(0)$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geq 5$, $\alpha > 0$, $p_{\alpha} = \frac{N+2+2\alpha}{N-2}$, and $\lambda \to 0$ as $\varepsilon \to 0$. By using the Emden-Fowler transformation and the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method, we construct bubble-tower solutions to this problem which are highly concentrated at the origin. we overcome the difficulty brought by the lack of compactness due to the supercritical growth of the nonlinearity. The Emden-Fowler transformation plays an important role in this work. it is not only a change of variables, but also a structural reconstruction in the sense of geometric analysis. This transformation converts the complicated bubble-tower concentration phenomenon near the origin into one have multi-peak solutions concentrated at separable points at infinity, so that the transformed equation is suitable for applying the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method, and thus we can construct solutions to the problem.

    This paper studies the following fractional Kirchhoff-type equation with critical growth

    $ \left(\epsilon^{2s}a+\epsilon^{4s-3}b\int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}|(-\Delta)^{\frac{s}{2}}u|^{2}{\rm d}x\right) (-\Delta)^{s}u+V(x)u=K(x)f(u)+|u|^{2^{*}_{s}-2}u, \ \ u\in H^{s}(\mathbb{R}^{3}), $

    where $\epsilon>0$ is a small parameter, $a,b>0$ are constants, $s\in(\frac{3}{4},1)$, $2^{*}_{s}=\frac{6}{3-2s}$ is the Sobolev critical exponent, the potential functions $V,K:\mathbb{R}^{3}\to\mathbb{R}$ are nonnegative continuous functions, and $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is a continuous but non-differentiable subcritical nonlinear term. By using the generalized Nehari manifold method introduced by [Szulkin A, Weth T. Boston: International Press, 2010], the authors prove the existence of ground state solutions and their concentration properties. Furthermore, using Ljusternik-Schnirelmann category theory, they establish a relationship between the number of solutions and the topology of the sets where the potential $V$ attains its minimum and $K$ attains its maximum.
