A critical Kirchhoff‐type problem involving the ‐Laplacian

In this paper we provide an existence result for a nonlocal problem of Kirchhoff‐type which involves both the p‐ and the q‐Laplacian and contains a critical term. Our approach is variational: we derive the existence of one non‐trivial solution via the multidimensional mountain pass theorem.     

Multiple solutions for a noncooperative Kirchhoff‐type system involving the fractional p‐Laplacian and critical exponents

In this paper, we use the Limit Index Theory due to Li 19 and the fractional version of concentration compactness principle to study the multiplicity of solutions for a class of noncooperative fractional p‐Laplacian elliptic system with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions involving the critical exponents.     

Standing waves for a class of fractional p‐Laplacian equations with a general critical nonlinearity

In this paper, we concern with the following fractional p‐Laplacian equation with critical Sobolev exponent $$\left\{\begin{array}{l}{\epsilon }^{ps}{\left\{?\mathrm{\Delta }\right.}_p^{s}u+V(x){\left|u\right|}^{p?2}u=\lambda f(x){\left|u\right|}^{q?2}u+{\left|u\right|}^{p_s^{?}?2}u\text{in}{?}^N,\\ u\in W^{s,p}\left\{{?}^N\right.,u>0,\end{array}\right.$$ where ε > 0 is a small parameter,  λ > 0 , N is a positive integer, and N > ps with s ∈ (0, 1) fixed, $1<q\le p,p_s^{?}:=Np/\left(N?ps\right)$. Since the nonlinearity $h(x,u):=\lambda f(x){\left|u\right|}^{q?2}u+{\left|u\right|}^{p_s^{?}?2}u$ does not satisfy the following Ambrosetti‐Rabinowitz condition: $$0<\mu H(x,u):=\mu {\int }_0^{u}h(x,t)dt\le h(x,u)u,x\in {?}^N,0\ne u\in ?,$$ with μ > p , it is difficult to obtain the boundedness of Palais‐Smale sequence, which is important to prove the existence of positive solutions. In order to overcome the above difficulty, we introduce a penalization method of fractional p‐Laplacian type.     

Three solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic equation involving the p − q‐Laplace operator

The existence of at least three weak solutions is established for a class of quasilinear elliptic equation involving the p ? q‐Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary condition. The technical approach is mainly on the basis of a three critical points theorem due to Ricceri. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for nonlinear fractional differential systems with p‐Laplacian via critical point theory

In this paper, the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions are obtained for nonlinear fractional differential systems with p‐Laplacian by combining the properties of fractional calculus with critical point theory. Firstly, we present a result that a class of p‐Laplacian fractional differential systems exists infinitely many solutions under the famous Ambrosetti‐Rabinowitz condition. Then, a criterion is given to guarantee that the fractional systems exist at least 1 nontrivial solution without satisfying Ambrosetti‐Rabinowitz condition. Our results generalize some existing results in the literature.     

Existence results for a class of nonlocal problems involving p(x)‐Laplacian

This paper is concerned with the existence of solutions to a class of p(x)‐Kirchhoff‐type equations with Dirichlet boundary data as follows: By means of variational methods and the theory of the variable exponent Sobolev spaces, we establish some conditions on the existence of solutions.

Second order regularity for the p(x)‐Laplace operator

In this paper, we establish second order regularity for the p(x)‐Laplace operator. This generalizes classical results known when the function p(.) is equal to some constant p > 1. © 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim     

Two solutions for a class of singular Kirchhoff‐type problems with Hardy–Sobolev critical exponent II

In this article, we devote ourselves to investigate the following singular Kirchhoff‐type equation: $$\left\{\begin{array}{l}?\left(a+b{\int }_{\mathrm{\Omega }}|?u{|}^{2}dx\right)\mathrm{\Delta }u=\frac{u^{5?2s}}{|x{|}^s}+\frac{\lambda }{|x{|}^{\beta }{u}^{\gamma }},x\in \mathrm{\Omega },\\ u>0,x\in \mathrm{\Omega },\\ u=0,x\in ?\mathrm{\Omega },\end{array}\right.$$ where $\mathrm{\Omega }?{?}^3$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ?Ω,0∈Ω,a≥0,b,λ>0,0<γ,s<1, and $0\le \beta <\frac{5+\gamma }{2}.$ By using the variational and perturbation methods, we obtain the existence of two positive solutions, which generalizes and improves the recent results in the literature.
