Fund Project: This paper is supported by Beijing Natural Science Foundation (1174013), National Natural Science Foundation of China (11601353, 11771302, 11771324, 11671026, 11831009).

In this paper, we study the following doubly coupled multicomponent system
$ \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u_j + \lambda_ju_j+ \sum_{k\neq j}\gamma_{jk}u_k = \mu_ju_j^3+ u_j\sum_{k\neq j}\beta_{jk}u_k^2,\\ u_j(x)\geq0\ \ \hbox{and}\ \ u_j\in H_0^1(\Omega), \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} $
where
$ \Omega\subset \mathbb{R} ^N $
 and
$ N = 2,3 $
;
$ \lambda_j, \gamma_{jk} = \gamma_{kj}, \mu_j, \beta_{jk} = \beta_{kj} $
 are constants,
$ j, k = 1, 2, ..., n $
,
$ n\geq 2 $
. We prove some existence and nonexistence results for positive solutions of this system. If the system is fully symmetric, i.e.
$ \lambda_j\equiv\lambda, \gamma_{jk}\equiv\gamma, \mu_j\equiv\mu, \beta_{jk}\equiv\beta $
, we study the multiplicity and bifurcation phenomena of positive solution.
Keywords: Doubly coupled equations, bifurcation, multicomponent.
