Abstract

In the spirit of the classical work of P. H. Rabinowitz on nonlinear Schrödinger equations, we prove existence of mountain-pass solutions and least energy solutions to the nonlinear Schrödinger-Poisson system \- Δu+ u + ρ(x) ϕu = |u|p-1 u, · amp;x∈ \mathbb R3, -Δϕ=ρ(x) u2, · amp; x∈ \mathbb R3, . under different assumptions on ρ: \mathbb R3→ \mathbb R+ at infinity. Our results cover the range p∈(2,3) where the lack of compactness phenomena may be due to the combined effect of the invariance by translations of a `limiting problem' at infinity and of the possible unboundedness of the Palais-Smale sequences. Moreover, we find necessary conditions for concentration at points to occur for solutions to the singularly perturbed problem \- ε2Δu+ u + ρ(x) ϕu = |u|p-1 u, · amp;x∈ \mathbb R3, -Δϕ=ρ(x) u2, · amp; x∈ \mathbb R3, . in various functional settings which are suitable for both variational and perturbation methods.
