Abstract

We prove the symmetry of components and some Liouville-type theorems for, possibly sign changing, entire distributional solutions to a family of nonlinear elliptic systems encompassing models arising in Bose-Einstein condensation and in nonlinear optics. For these models we also provide precise classification results for non-negative solutions. The sharpness of our results is also discussed.

Summary

Introduction

The aim of this paper is to classify entire solutions (u, v) of the following nonlinear elliptic systems arising in Bose-Einstein condensation and in nonlinear optics (see for instance [7], [14], [19] and the references therein) :. We shall prove that any entire distributional solution (u, v) of system (1.1), has the symmetry property u = v (symmetry of components). We use this result to establish some new Liouville-type theorems as well as some classification results. Our method is different (and complementary) from the one used in [21] It exploits the attractive character of the interaction between the two states u and v. It applies to any distributional entire solution, possibly sign-changing and without any other restriction.
