preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the existence of multiple segregated solutions to the critical coupled Schrödinger system {−Δu1=K1(∣y∣)∣u1∣2∗−2u1+β∣u2∣2∗2∣u1∣2∗2−2u1,y∈RN,−Δu2=K2(∣y∣)∣u2∣2∗−2u2+β∣u1∣2∗2∣u2∣2∗2−2u2,y∈RN,u1,u2≥0,u1,u2∈C0(RN)∩D1,2(RN), \begin{cases} -Δu_{1} = K_1(| y|) | u_{1}|^{2^*-2}u_{1}+β| u_{2}|^{\frac{2^{*}}{2}}| u_{1}|^{\frac{2^{*}}{2}-2}u_{1}, & y\in \mathbb R^N,\\ -Δu_{2} = K_2(| y|) | u_{2}|^{2^*-2}u_{2}+β| u_{1}|^{\frac{2^{*}}{2}}| u_{2}|^{\frac{2^{*}}{2}-2}u_{2}, & y\in\mathbb R^N,\\ u_{1},u_{2}\geq0, u_{1},u_{2}\in C_0(\mathbb R^{N})\cap D^{1,2}(\mathbb R^N), \end{cases} with N≥5N \geq 5, 2∗=2NN−22^* = \frac{2N}{N-2}, radial potentials K1,K2>0K_1, K_2 > 0,and repulsive coupling β<0β< 0.Under the assumption that K1K_1 and K2K_2 attain local maxima at distinct radii r0≠ρ0r_0 \ne ρ_0 with precise asymptotic expansions near these points, we prove the existence of infinitely many non-radial segregated solutions (u1,k,u2,k)(u_{1,k}, u_{2,k}) for all sufficiently large integers kk. These solutions exhibit multiple bumps concentrating on two separate circles of radius r0r_0 and ρ0ρ_0 respectively. Moreover, each component develops a "dead core'' near the concentration points of the other. The proof overcomes the sublinear and non-smooth nature of the coupling term (2∗/2−1<12^*/2 -1 < 1) by constructing a tailored complete metric space and combining a finite-dimensional reduction with a novel tail minimization argument.
