Abstract
Given , we study the elliptic problem
where is the unitary ball and is Sobolev-subcritical. Such a problem arises in the search for solitary wave solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) with power nonlinearity on bounded domains. Necessary and sufficient conditions (about , and ) are provided for the existence of solutions. Moreover, we show that standing waves associated to least energy solutions are orbitally stable for every (in the existence range) when is -critical and subcritical, i.e., , while they are stable for almost every in the -supercritical regime . The proofs are obtained in connection with the study of a variational problem with two constraints of independent interest: to maximize the -norm among functions having prescribed - and -norms.
