Abstract

For singularly perturbed Schrödinger equations with decaying potentials at infinity we construct semiclassical states of a critical frequency concentrating on spheres near zeroes of the potentials. The results generalize some recent work of Ambrosetti–Malchiod–Ni [3] which gives solutions concentrating on spheres where the potential is positive. The solutions we obtain exhibit different behaviors from the ones given in [3].
