Semilinear elliptic equation $Delta u = P(u)$ with $P$ being polynomial of degree 3

Suppose that $B_1 subset mathbb{R}^3$ and $P(u)$ is a polynomial with degree 3. If $u in W^{1,2}(B_1)$ is a weak solution of $$Delta u = P(u) text{ in } B_1,$$
then can we obtain the smoothness of the solution?



I found that the theories in Trudinger's book can not be applied since the integrability of $P(u)$ is not good enough. And If the degree of $P$ is higher, I found there may not exist a smooth solution.



Is that true if I replace $P(u)$ by a smooth function $g(u)$ such that $lim_{x to infty}dfrac{g}{u^3}<infty$? May I have a reference of it? Thank you!

    If $uin W^{1,2}$ then by embeddings $uin L^6$, thus $P(u)in L^2$. Then you get $uin H^2_{loc}$. What do you want to obtain here?

  • Then we can embed $H^2$ into $C^{0, alpha}$ and thus $Delta u in C^{0, alpha }$. Therefore, we have $u in C^{2, alpha}$. Is it correct?
