Abstract

We investigate the minimization problem

where \(q=\frac{2N}{N-2}\), \( N \geqslant 4\), a and b are two continuous positive weight functions. We show the existence of solutions of the previous minimizing problem under some conditions on ab, the dimension of the space and the parameter \(\lambda \).
