Abstract

In this article, we establish a new Trudinger–Moser type inequality for radial functions in some appropriate weighted Sobolev space defined in the whole space \( {\mathbb {R}}^2. \) This inequality is used in order to study some elliptic equation defined in \({\mathbb {R}}^2\) and involving a nonlinearity with doubly exponential growth at infinity.
