Résumé

Let Ω be a bounded smooth domain in $R^{N}$ . We study positive solutions of equation (E) $- L_{μ} u + u^{q} = 0$ in Ω where $L_{μ} = Δ + \frac{μ}{δ^{2}}$ , $0 < μ$ , $q > 1$ and $δ (x) = dist (x, \partial Ω)$ . A positive solution of (E) is moderate if it is dominated by an $L_{μ}$ -harmonic function. If $μ < C_{H} (Ω)$ (the Hardy constant for Ω) every positive $L_{μ}$ -harmonic function can be represented in terms of a finite measure on ∂Ω via the Martin representation theorem. However the classical measure boundary trace of any such solution is zero. We introduce a notion of normalized boundary trace by which we obtain a complete classification of the positive moderate solutions of (E) in the subcritical case, $1 < q < q_{μ, c}$ . (The critical value depends only on N and μ.) For $q \geq q_{μ, c}$ there exists no moderate solution with an isolated singularity on the boundary. The normalized boundary trace and associated boundary value problems are also discussed in detail for the linear operator $L_{μ}$ . These results form the basis for the study of the nonlinear problem.
