TY - JOUR T1 - A variational Analysis of the Toda System on Compact Surfaces JF - Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 66, Issue 3, March 2013, Pages 332-371 Y1 - 2013 A1 - Andrea Malchiodi A1 - David Ruiz AB - In this paper we consider the Toda system of equations on a compact surface. We will give existence results by using variational methods in a non coercive case. A key tool in our analysis is a new Moser-Trudinger type inequality under suitable conditions on the center of mass and the scale of concentration of the two components u_1, u_2.
