Abstract

This paper is concerned with the following nonlinear Schrödinger equations with magnetic potentials

$\begin{equation}\label{0} \Bigl(\frac{\nabla}{i}-α A(|x|)\Bigl)^{2}u+(1+α V(|x|))u=|u|^{p-2}u,\,\,u∈ H^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{N},\mathbb{C}),\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \left( 0.1 \right) \end{equation}$

where $2<p<\frac{2N}{N-2}$ if $N≥q 3$ and $2<p<+∞$ if $N=2$. $α$ can be regarded as a parameter. $A(|x|)=(A_{1}(|x|),A_{2}(|x|),···,A_{N}(|x|))$ is a magnetic field satisfying that $A_{j}(|x|)>0(j=1,...,N)$ is a real $C^{1}$ bounded function on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ and $V(|x|)>0$ is a real continuous electric potential. Under some decaying conditions of both electric and magnetic potentials which are given in section 1, we prove that the equation has multiple complex-valued solutions by applying the finite reduction method.
