✦ Synopsis


with 1 < p < n+2 n-2 , n 2, and 0 V (x) ∈ L ∞ , which may decay to 0 at infinity. We prove that if V is radial and satisfies

then (1) admits a (ground state) positive solution. We do not use traditional variational methods and the result relies on the study of global solutions of the parabolic problem

(2) Indeed, we will show that, under suitable conditions on V (not necessarily radial), (2) admits global positive solutions and that when V and u 0 are radial some global solutions have ωlimit sets containing a positive equilibrium. The method also covers nonlinearities more general
