Abstract:

In this paper we classify positive solutions to the critical semilinear elliptic equation in $\mathbb{H}^n$. We prove that they are the Jerison-Lee's bubbles, provided $n=1$ or $n\geq 2$ and a suitable control at infinity holds. The proofs are based on a classical Jerison-Lee's differential identity and on pointwise-integral estimates recently obtained for critical semilinear and quasilinear elliptic equations in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, the result in $\mathbb{H}^1$ can be seen as the analogue of the celebrated Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck classification theorem.
