Improved estimates and a limit case for the electrostatic Klein-Gordon-Maxwell system

Abstract

We study the class of nonlinear Klein-Gordon-Maxwell systems describing a standing wave (charged matter field) in equilibrium with a purely electrostatic field. We improve some previous existence results in the case of an homogeneous nonlinearity. Moreover, we deal with a limit case, namely when the frequency of the standing wave is equal to the mass of the charged field; this case shows analogous features of the well known "zero mass case" for scalar field equations.
