We distinguish the cases $\ell>0$ and $\ell=0$ and we prove existence and uniqueness results if the potential $ρ(x)$ decays fast enough at infinity. Our arguments rely on comparison techniques and on a theorem of Brezis and Oswald for sublinear elliptic equations.Analysis of PDEsMathematical Physics35B40, 35B50, 35J60, 58J05text
