Abstract
In this paper, we study the existence of minimizers for
on the constraint
, where c > 0 is a given parameter. In the range \({p \in [3,\frac{10}{3}]}\) , we explicit a threshold value of c > 0 separating existence and nonexistence of minimizers. We also derive a nonexistence result of critical points of F(u) restricted to S(c) when c > 0 is sufficiently small. Finally, as a by-product of our approaches, we extend some results of Colin et al. (Nonlinearity 23(6):1353–1385, 2010) where a constrained minimization problem, associated with a quasi-linear equation, is considered.
