Two types of ground state solutions for a periodic Schrodinger equations with zero on the boundary of the spectrum

Dongdong Qin, Xianhua Tang

Abstract:
This article concerns the Schrodinger equation
$$\displaylines{ -\Delta u+V(x)u=f(x, u), \quad \text{for } x\in\mathbb{R}^N,\cr u(x)\to 0, \quad \text{as } |x| \to \infty\,. }$$
Assuming that V and f are periodic in x, and 0 is a boundary point of the spectrum $\sigma(-\Delta+V)$, two types of ground state solutions are obtained with some super-quadratic conditions.
