Uniqueness and Nondegeneracy of Ground States for Choquard Equations in three dimensions

Abstract

We obtain uniqueness and nondegeneracy results for ground states of Choquard equations $-\Delta u+u=\left(|x|^{-1}\ast|u|^{p}\right)|u|^{p-2}u$ in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$, provided that $p>2$ and $p$ is sufficiently close to 2.
