Abstract:
\noindent{\bf Abstract:} The main purpose of this paper is to
analyze the concentration behavior of the ground state solutions
for fourth order equation $\Delta ^2u=|x|^\alpha u^{p-1}$ in
$\Omega$, $u=\Delta u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$~ ($\Omega \subset R^n$ is a ball centered at the origin). It is proved that for $p$
close to $2^*=\frac{2n}{n-4} (n>4)$, the ground state solution
$u_p$ concentrates near the boundary of $\Omega$.
