A threshold phenomenon for embeddings of \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${H^m_0}$$\end{document} into Orlicz spaces

Given an open bounded domain \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\Omega\subset\mathbb {R}^{2m}}$$\end{document} with smooth boundary, we consider a sequence \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${(u_k)_{k\in\mathbb{N}}}$$\end{document} of positive smooth solutions to\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\left\{\begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^m u_k=\lambda_k u_k e^{mu_k^2} \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad {\rm in}\,\Omega\\ u_k=\partial_\nu u_k=\cdots =\partial_\nu^{m-1} u_k=0 \quad {\rm on }\, \partial \Omega, \end{array}\right.$$\end{document}where λk → 0+. Assuming that the sequence is bounded in \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${H^m_0(\Omega)}$$\end{document} , we study its blow-up behavior. We show that if the sequence is not precompact, then \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\liminf_{k\to\infty}\|u_k\|^2_{H^m_0}:=\liminf_{k\to\infty}\int\limits_\Omega u_k(-\Delta)^m u_k dx\geq \Lambda_1,$$\end{document}where Λ1 = (2m − 1)!vol(S2m) is the total Q-curvature of S2m.
