Elliptic problems with singular potentials

  I focused my attention on different aspects dealing with nonlinear second order elliptic equations with singular potentials. My first paper [1] in chronological order was about a critical growth Dirichlet problem with an inverse-square potential associated with the Hardy inequality. The purpose of the paper was proving existence and multiplicity results for nontrivial solutions of the Dirichlet problem. More recently my research on singular elliptic problems mainly focused on qualitative aspects of their solutions. More precisely the main purpose of that study was to provide suitable asymptotic estimates on the behavior of solutions near the singular set of the potentials. Those results are collected in the papers [2]-[6].
