A Struwe-type Decomposition Result for Weighted Critical $p$-Laplace Equations

We establish Struwe-type decompositions of Palais-Smale sequences for a class of critical $p$-Laplace equations of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type in a bounded domain $\mathrm{\Omega }\subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$, $n\ge 2$, containing the origin. In doing so, we highlight important differences introduced by the weights and require new rescaling laws to account for this new framework.
