Abstract

In this paper we consider the following problem  where  is a bounded domain in  with smooth boundary,  is a small parameter,  denotes the outward normal of  and . Let  be a straight line intersecting with  at exactly two points. We will prove the existence of a solution  possessing curve concentrating set near , exponentially small in  at any positive distance from the concentrating set, provided  is small and away from certain critical numbers.

 

Key Words: Curve concentration, singular perturbation, neumann problems, spike layer.
