, and Zhu, Li, and Liang established the existence of ground state solutions for () when the potential may vanish at infinity and the nonlinear term is subcritical growth. Subsequently, in [
14], Chen, Tang, and Cheng obtained the existence of ground state sign‐changing solutions via non‐Nehari manifold. To the best of our knowledge, there is no work concerning with the existence of ground state solutions for (1.5) with critical growth so far.…”
