Solutions concentrating on higher dimensional subsets for singularly perturbed elliptic equations. II. (English) Zbl 1195.35143

Summary: We construct spike layered solutions for the semilinear elliptic equation \(-\varepsilon ^{2}\Delta u+V(x)u=K(x)u^{p-1}\) on a domain \(\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N\) which may be bounded or unbounded. The solutions concentrate simultaneously on a finite number of \(m\)-dimensional spheres in \(\Omega \). These spheres accumulate as \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\) at a prescribed sphere in \(\Omega \) whose location is determined by the potential functions \(V,K\).
