Abstract

Our purpose is to investigate the existence of entire solutions \(\left( u_{1},u_{2}\right) \) which are of class \(C^{1}\) and satisfy the system

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \Delta u_{1}+\Delta (|u_{1}|^{2\gamma _{1}})\left| u_{1}\right| ^{2\gamma _{1}-2}u_{1}=p_{1}(\left| x\right| )\Psi _{1}\left( u_{1}\right) F_{1}(u_{2})\quad \text { in }\mathbb {R}^{N}(N\ge 3)\text {,} \\ \Delta u_{2}+\Delta (|u_{2}|^{2\gamma _{2}})\left| u_{2}\right| ^{2\gamma _{2}-2}u_{2}=p_{2}(\left| x\right| )\Psi _{2}\left( u_{2}\right) F_{2}(u_{1})\quad \text { in }\mathbb {R}^{N}(N\ge 3).\text { } \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

Here \(p_{1}\), \(F_{1}\), \(\Psi _{1}\), \(p_{2}\), \(\Psi _{2}\) and \(F_{2}\) are continuous functions satisfying new conditions. The original motivation of our work comes from the Schrödinger equation.
