We study the following minimization problem:
${d_{{a_q}}}(q): = \mathop {\inf }\limits_{\{ \int {_{{\mathbb{R}^2}}|u{|^2}dx = 1} \} } {E_{q,{a_q}}}(u),$
where the functional
$E_{q,a_q}(·)$
is given by
${{E}_{q,{{a}_{q}}}}(u):=\int_{{{\mathbb{R}}^{2}}}{(|\nabla u(x){{|}^{2}}+V(x)|u(x){{|}^{2}})}dx-\frac{2{{a}_{q}}}{q+2}\int_{{{\mathbb{R}}^{2}}}{|}u(x){{|}^{q+2}}dx.$
Here
$a_q>0, \ q∈(0,2)$
and
$V(x)$
is some type of trapping potential. Let
$a^*:= \|Q\|_2^2$
, where
$Q$
is the unique (up to translations) positive radial solution of
$Δ u-u+u^3=0$
in
$\mathbb{R}^2$
. We prove that if
$\lim_{q\nearrow2}a_q=a<a^*$
, then minimizers of
$d_{a_q}(q)$
is compact in a suitable space as
$q\nearrow2$
. On the contraty, if
$\lim_{q\nearrow2}a_q=a≥q a^*$
, by directly using asymptotic analysis, we prove that all minimizers must blow up and give the detailed asymptotic behavior of minimizers. These conclusions extend the results of Guo-Zeng-Zhou [Concentration behavior of standing waves for almost mass critical nonlinear Schrödinger equations, J. Differential Equations. 256, (2014), 2079-2100].
