Abstract

In this note, we consider the following Matukuma type equation on the hyperbolic space or on a spherical cap of the unit sphere under the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition \begin{eqnarray*} \Lambda u+K(x)u_+^{p}=0, \end{eqnarray*} where $\Lambda$ is the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the hyperbolic space or on the unit sphere. Under suitable assumptions on $K$, we determine the structure of positive solutions.
