In this paper we study the existence of solutions $u\in H^1(\R^N)$ forthe problem $-\Delta u+a(x)u=|u|^{p-2}u$, where $N\ge 2$ and $p$ issuperlinear and subcritical.The potential $a(x)\in L^\infty(\R^N)$ is such that $a(x)\ge c>0$ butis not assumed to have a limit at infinity.Considering different kinds of assumptions on the geometry of $a(x)$we obtain two theorems stating the existence of positive solutions.Furthermore, we prove that there are no nontrivial solutions, when adirection exists along which the potential is increasing.
Keywords: Schrödinger equations, non-regular potential at infinity, variational methods, existence and nonexistence of solutions..
