Abstract
Consider the following elliptic system:
where \(V_i(x)\) are trapping potentials, \(\mu _i,\alpha _i>0(i=1,2)\) and \(\beta <0\) are constants, \(\varepsilon >0\) is a small parameter, and \(2<p<2^*=4\). By using the variational method, we obtain a solution to this system for \(\varepsilon >0\) small enough. The concentration behaviors of this solution as \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0^+\), involving the location of the spikes, are also studied by combining the uniformly elliptic estimates and local energy estimates. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result devoted to the spikes in the Bose–Einstein condensate with trapping potentials in \(\mathbb {R}^4\) for the repulsive case.
