A singular perturbation problem
  Consider the equation $-s^2\Delta u_s+q(x)u_s=f(u_s)$ in $\R^3$, $|u(\infty)|<\infty$, $s=const>0$. Under what assumptions on $q(x)$ and $f(u)$ can one prove that the solution $u_s$ exists and $\lim_{s\to 0} u_s=u(x)$, where $u(x)$ solves the limiting problem $q(x)u=f(u)$? These are the questions discussed in the paper.
