In this paper, we study the following Schrödinger-Poisson equations with double critical exponents:
$ \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{lr} -\Delta u = |u|^4u+\phi |u|^3 u +\lambda u,\quad& in\,\,\Omega,\\ -\Delta \phi = |u|^5,\quad& in\,\,\Omega,\\ u = \phi = 0,\quad& on\,\,\partial\Omega, \end{array} \right. \end{equation*} $
where
$ \Omega $
 is a bounded domain in
$ \mathbb{R}^3 $
 with Lipschitz boundary,
$ \lambda $
 is a real parameter satisfying suitable conditions. Using variational methods, we show the existence and nonexistence of nontrivial solutions for the Schrödinger-Poisson equations.
Keywords: Schrödinger-Poisson equation, Brezis-Nirenberg type, double critical exponents, nontrivial solutions, variational methods.
