Multiple nonradial solutions for a supercritical problem in an exterior domain

Abstract: In this talk, I will present an existence result for the Dirichlet problem associated with the elliptic equation
$$-\Delta u + u = a(x)|u|^{p-2}u$$
set in an annulus or an exterior domain of $\mathbb R^N$, $N \geq 3$. Here $p>2$ is allowed to be supercritical in the sense of Sobolev embeddings, and $a(x)$ is a positive weight with additional symmetry and monotonicity properties.
In the special case of radial weight $a(x)$, such an existence result ensures the multiplicity of nonradial solutions.
