Singular limits for the bi-laplacian operator with exponential nonlinearity in $\R^4$

Abstract

Let $Ω$ be a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ such that for some integer $d\geq1$ its $d$-th singular cohomology group with coefficients in some field is not zero, then problem {Δ^{2}u-ρ^{4}k(x)e^{u}=0 & \hbox{in}Ω, u=Δu=0 & \hbox{on}\partialΩ, has a solution blowing-up, as $ρ\to0$, at $m$ points of $Ω$, for any given number $m$.
