Nonlinear scalar field equation with point interaction

Abstract

This paper is devoted to the study of the nonlinear scalar field equation with a point interaction at the origin in dimensions two and three. By applying the mountain pass theorem and the technique of adding one dimensional space, we prove the existence of a nontrivial singular solution for a wide class of nonlinearities. We also establish the Pohozaev identity by proving a pointwise estimate of the gradient near the origin. Some qualitative properties of nontrivial solutions are also given.
