The function $h$ may have an indefinite sign. Key ingredients are a $h$-dependent concentration-compactness Lemma and a characterization of compact embeddings of $D^{1,2}(\rz^N)$ into weighted Lebesgue spaces.Analysis of PDEsFunctional Analysis35J65, 35D05Compact embeddings and indefinite semilinear elliptic problemstext
