In the regularity theory of solutions to elliptic partial differential equations often the concept of stability plays the role of a sufficient condition for smoothness. It is a natural question to ask if this holds true for nonstable but finite Morse index solutions. We provide a negative answer showing the existence of sequences of solutions with radial Morse index equal to 1 for which regularity estimates can not be satisfied.
