Elliptic problem driven by different types of nonlinearities

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper we establish the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions to the following problem: $$\begin{aligned} \begin{aligned} (-\Delta )^{\frac{1}{2}}u+u+\bigl(\ln \vert \cdot \vert * \vert u \vert ^{2}\bigr)&=f(u)+\mu \vert u \vert ^{- \gamma -1}u,\quad \text{in }\mathbb{R}, \end{aligned} \end{aligned}$$ ( − Δ ) 1 2 u + u + ( ln | ⋅ | ∗ | u | 2 ) = f ( u ) + μ | u | − γ − 1 u , in  R , where $\mu >0$ μ > 0 , $(*)$ ( ∗ ) is the convolution operation between two functions, $0<\gamma <1$ 0 < γ < 1 , f is a function with a certain type of growth. We prove the existence of a nontrivial solution at a certain mountain pass level and another ground state solution when the nonlinearity f is of exponential critical growth.
