Abstract
This work is devoted to the existence and to qualitative properties of ground state solutions of the Dirchlet problem for the semilinear equation $-Delta u-lambda u=vert uvert^{2^*-2}u$ in a bounded domain. Here $2^*$ is the critical Sobolev exponent, and the term ground state refers to minimizers of the corresponding energy within the set of nontrivial solutions. We focus on the indefinite case where $lambda$ is larger than the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian, and we present a particularly simple approach to the study of ground states.
