Abstract

We study the existence of radially symmetric solutions of the following nonlinear scalar field equations in ℝ^N : -Δu = g(u) in ℝ^N', u ∈ H¹ (ℝ^N). We give an extension of the existence results due to H. Berestycki, T. GaIloüe't and O. Kavian [2]. We take a mountain pass approach in H¹(ℝ ^N) and introduce a new method generating a Palais-Smale sequence with an additional property related to Pohozaev identity.
