Let $K(x)$ be a positive function in $R^N, N \geq 3$ and satisfy $\lim\limits_{|x|\rightarrow \infty} K(x) = K_\infty$ where $K_\infty$ is a positive constant. When $p > \frac{N + 1}{N - 3}, N \geq 4$, we prove the existence of infinitely many positive solutions to the following supercritical problem: \begin{eqnarray*} \Delta u(x) + K(x)u^p = 0, u>0 \quad in \quad R^N, \lim_{|x|\rightarrow \infty} u(x) = 0. \end{eqnarray*} If in addition we have, for instance, $\lim\limits_{|x| \rightarrow \infty}|x|^\mu (K(x) - K_\infty ) = C_0 \neq 0, 0 < \mu \leq N - \frac{2p+2}{p-1}$, then this result still holds provided that $p > \frac{N + 2}{N - 2}$.
