This article investigates the existence and nonexistence of nontrivial solutions for a Schrödinger–Poisson system with doubly critical exponents:
where , , and . Under optimal parameter ranges, we prove both the existence of radial ground state solutions and the nonexistence of nontrivial solutions. This work completely resolves an open problem proposed in [X. Chen, C. Tang, Communications on Pure and Applied Analysis 23 (2024), 1011–1043].
