Persistence of Coron's solution in nearly critical problems
Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze, Serie 5, Volume 6 (2007) no. 2, pp. 331-357.

We consider the problem

-Δu=u N+2 N-2+λ inΩεω,u>0inΩεω,u=0onΩεω,
where Ω and ω are smooth bounded domains in N , N3, ε>0 and λ. We prove that if the size of the hole ε goes to zero and if, simultaneously, the parameter λ goes to zero at the appropriate rate, then the problem has a solution which blows up at the origin.
