Abstract

We study blow-up and quantization phenomena for a sequence of solutions (uk) to the prescribed Q-curvature problem (-Δ)nuk= Qke2nuk in Ω⊂ℝ2n, ∫Ωe2nukdx≤ C, under natural assumptions on Qk. It is well-known that, up to a subsequence, either (uk) is bounded in a suitable norm, or there exists βk→∞ such that ukk(φ+o(1)) in Ω∖ (S1∪ Sφ) for some non-trivial non-positive n-harmonic function φ and for a finite set S1, where Sφ is the zero set of φ. We prove quantization of the total curvature ∫ΩQke2nukdx on the region Ω\Subset(Ω∖ Sφ). We also consider a non-local case in dimension three.
