The critical boundary value for a nonlinear Schrödinger equation in a half-space: rigidity and dimensional transition

Let $w_0$ be the positive homoclinic solution of $-w''+w=w^p$ and set $c_p=w_0(0)$. We study bounded positive solutions of \[ -Δv+v=v^p\quad\text{in }\mathbb R^N_+, \qquad v=c_p\quad\text{on }\partial\mathbb R^N_+, \qquad v(x',x_N)\to0 \] uniformly as $x_N\to\infty$. This is the threshold boundary v
