Résumé
Abstract

Nous considérons le problème de Brezis–Nirenberg suivant sur $S^{3}$

- Δ_{S^{3}} u = λ u + u^{5} dans D, u > 0 dans D et u = 0 sur \partial D,

où D est une boule géodésique sur

S^{3}

de rayon géodésique

θ_{1}

, et

- Δ_{S^{3}}

est l'opérateur de Laplace–Beltrami sur

S^{3}

. Nous montrons que pour tout

λ < - \frac{3}{4}

et tout

θ_{1} < π

avec

π - θ_{1}

suffisamment petit (dependant de λ), il existe des solutions pour le problème précédent. Ce résultat répond à une conjecture de Bandle et Benguria [J. Differential Equations 178 (2002) 264–279] et de Brezis et Peletier [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 339 (2004) 291–394].

We consider the following Brezis–Nirenberg problem on $S^{3}$

- Δ_{S^{3}} u = λ u + u^{5} in D, u > 0 in D and u = 0 on \partial D,

where D is a geodesic ball on

S^{3}

with geodesic radius

θ_{1}

, and

Δ_{S^{3}}

is the Laplace–Beltrami operator on

S^{3}

. We prove that for any

λ < - \frac{3}{4}

and for every

θ_{1} < π

with

π - θ_{1}

sufficiently small (depending on λ), there exists bubbling solution to the above problem. This solves a conjecture raised by Bandle and Benguria [J. Differential Equations 178 (2002) 264–279] and Brezis and Peletier [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 339 (2004) 291–394].
