AbstractWe prove structure results for the radial solutions of the semilinear problem\Delta u+\frac{\lambda(|x|)}{|x|^{2}}u+f(u(x),|x|)=0,where λ is afunctionandfis superlinear in theu-variable. As particular cases, we are able to deal with Matukuma potentials and with nonlinearitiesfhaving different polynomial behaviors at zero and at infinity. We give the complete picture for the subcritical, critical and supercritical cases. The technique relies on the Fowler transformation, allowing to deal with a dynamical system in{{\mathbb{R}}^{3}}, for which elementary invariant manifold theory allows to draw the conclusions involving regular/singular and fast/slow-decay solutions.
