function such that m and m

since ,,R verifies Palais-Smale condition, there exists a subsequence
(unk )k such that unk u1,R in Vc1,2 (DR ) and u1,R 6= 0 because 0 it is
not a critical point of ,,R .
2. Absolute minimum.- Let
uR
inf
Vc1,2 (DR )
,,R
Then uR < , by (2.17). Now using similar arguments to local minimum, but without any modification, we have that uR is achieved in
Vc1,2 (DR ) at a function u2,R .
3.Mountain pass.- Let
cR inf sup ,,R (u)
R u
On the other hand it is clear that u1,R , u2,R and u3,R are different,
indeed
,,R (u2,R ) = uR < R = ,,R (u1,R ) < 0 < cR = ,,R (u3,R )
Remark 6. When is small enough it is easy to prove uniqueness for
(1.5), so u1,R = u2,R , and the local minimum in B od ,,R is the
absolute in Vc1,2 (DR ).

so, i. is proved.
ii. Uniqueness is proved as in [1] using the inequality (2.2) and (f-4).

Now we will prove a sufficient condition to approximate solutions of
(1.3) with solutions of (1.5) with R large enough.

for all n such that Rn > R . The constant C depends on DR0 , n, p and

in Vc1,2 (Rn+ ), by (2.2), (2.5), (3.1) and the hypothesis of f and m, we

Then for all , 0 < < the local minima u1,R of ,,R , approximate
the local minima of , on the ball B of center 0 and radius in

As a consequence inf B , , is a minimum and by proposition 7
it is the unique critical point of , , if small enough(i.e. 0 < <

Proof.- We only need to prove that R as R . With
this aim we consider (uR )R in C0 (Rn+ ) such Rthat uR Vc1,2 (DR ) and
,,R (uR ) as R . By remark 1 n DR mF ( )dx 0 as
