In this paper we study the problem of the axial symmetry of solutions of some semilinear elliptic equations in unbounded domains. Assuming that the solutions have Morse index one and that the nonlinearity is strictly convex in the second variable, we are able to prove several symmetry results in R-n and in the exterior of a ball. The case of some bounded domains is also discussed.

Abstract
In this paper we study the problem of the axial symmetry of solutions of some semilinear elliptic equations in unbounded domains. Assuming that the solutions have Morse index one and that the nonlinearity is strictly convex in the second variable, we are able to prove several symmetry results in R-n and in the exterior of a ball. The case of some bounded domains is also discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
