Normalized Solutions to Kirchhoff Equation with Nonnegative Potential

This paper is concerned with the existence of solutions to the problem $$-\left(a+ b\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}|\nabla u|^{2} dx \right)\Delta u +V(x)u+\lambda u = |u|^{p-2}u,\ \ x \in \mathbb{R}^{N},\ \ \lambda \in \mathbb{R}^{+}$$ where $a, b>0$ are constants, $V \geq 0$ is a potential, $N \geq 1$, and $p \in (2+ \frac{4}{N},2^*$). We use a more subtle analysis to revisit the limited problem($V \equiv 0$), and obtain a new energy inequality and bifurcation results. Based on these observations, we establish the existence of bound state normalized solutions under different assumptions on $V$. These conclusions extend some known results in previous papers.
