Abstract

We consider the equation Δxu+uyy+f(u)=0,x=(x1,⋯,xN)∈RN,y∈R,where N≥ 2 and f is a sufficiently smooth function satisfying f(0) = 0 , f(0) < 0 , and some natural additional conditions. We prove that equation (1) possesses uncountably many positive solutions (disregarding translations) which are radially symmetric in x= (x1, … , xN-1) and decaying as | x| → ∞, periodic in xN, and quasiperiodic in y. Related theorems for more general equations are included in our analysis as well. Our method is based on center manifold and KAM-type results.
