    "abstract": "This paper introduces new variational methods centered on the direct application of a profile decomposition theorem for bounded sequences in Sobolev spaces. We employ these methods to prove the existence of ground state solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic equations in $\\mathbb{R}^N$ with critical Sobolev growth, set in an asymptotically periodic framework where the coefficients converge to periodic functions at infinity. Our approach successfully addresses highly general nonlinearities, including a subcritical term that does not need to satisfy the classical Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition and a critical term that extends far beyond the standard pure power assumption to include functions with oscillatory behavior. We prove the existence of ground states under two alternative conditions: either a strict energy gap between the minimax levels of the original and asymptotic problems or a direct energy comparison between the associated functionals. Some restrictive assumptions, such as specific decay rates for the coefficients or monotonicity properties of the nonlinearities, are not required in our results.",
