Abstract

In this paper, we deal with the following elliptic type problem {(Δ)q(.)s(.)u+λVu=αup(.)2u+βuk(.)2u in Ω,u=0 in Rn\Ω, \begin{cases} (-\Delta)_{q(.)}^{s(.)}u + \lambda Vu = \alpha \left\vert u\right\vert^{p(.)-2}u+\beta \left\vert u\right\vert^{k(.)-2}u & \text{ in }\Omega, \\[7pt] u =0 & \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^{n}\backslash \Omega , \end{cases} where q(.):Ω×ΩRq(.):\overline{\Omega}\times \overline{\Omega}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} is a measurable function and s(.):Rn×Rn(0,1)s(.):\mathbb{R}^n\times \mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow (0,1) is a continuous function, n>q(x,y)s(x,y)n>q(x,y)s(x,y) for all (x,y)Ω×Ω(x,y)\in \Omega \times \Omega , (Δ)q(.)s(.)(-\Delta)_{q(.)}^{s(.)} is the variable-order fractional Laplace operator, and VV is a positive continuous potential. Using the mountain pass category theorem and Ekeland's variational principle, we obtain the existence of a least two different solutions for all λ>0\lambda>0. Besides, we prove that these solutions converge to two of the infinitely many solutions of a limit problem as λ+\lambda \rightarrow +\infty .
