Abstract

In this paper, without any assumption on v and under the extremely mild assumption u(x) = O(|x|K) at \infty for some K \gg 1 arbitrarily large, we prove classification of solutions to the following conformally invariant system with mixed order and exponentially increasing nonlinearity in \BbbR2: \Biggl\{ (--\Delta\Delta)v(x21)u=(xu)4=(xe)pv(x),x \in \BbbRx2\in\BbbR2, where p \in (0, +\infty), u \geq 0 and that satisfies the finite total curvature condition \int\BbbR2 u4(x)dx < +\infty. In order to show the integral representation formula and the crucial asymptotic property for v, we derive and use an expL +Lln L inequality, which is itself of independent interest. When p = 23 , the system is closely related to single conformally invariant equations (-\Delta) 21 u = u3 and -\Deltav = e2v on \BbbR2, which have been quite extensively studied (cf. [H. Brezis and F. Merle, Comm. Partial Differential Equations, 16 (1991), pp. 1223-1253; D. Cao, Comm. Partial Differential Equations, 17 (1992), pp. 407-435; S.-Y. A. Chang and P. C. Yang, Math. Res. Lett., 4 (1997), pp. 91-102; W. Chen and C. Li, Duke Math. J., 63 (1991), pp. 615-622; W. Chen, C. Li, and Y. Li, Adv. Math., 308 (2017), pp. 404-437; W. Chen, Y. Li, and R. Zhang, J. Funct. Anal., 272 (2017), pp. 4131-4157], etc.). We also derive classification results for nonnegative solutions to a conformally invariant system with mixed order and Hartree type nonlocal nonlinearity in \BbbR3. Extensions to mixed order conformally invariant systems in \BbbRn with general dimensions n \geq 3 are also included.
