We study positive solutions of the equation $ε^2 \Delta u - u + u^\frac{n+2}{n-2} = 0$ where $ε >0$ is small, with Neumann boundary condition in a unit ball $B\subset\mathbb R^3$. We prove the existence of solutions with multiple interior bubbles near the center and a boundary layer. The method may also be used to the case $n=4$, $5$ and get the analogous results.
Keywords: Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction., blow up, Clustered interior bubbles, boundary layer.
