On indefinite Kirchhoff-type equations under the combined effect of linear and superlinear terms
Abstract
We investigate a class of Kirchhoff type equations involving a combination of linear and superlinear terms as follows: \begin{equation*} -\left( a\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}|\nabla u|^{2}dx+1\right) \Delta u+\mu V(x)u=\lambda f(x)u+g(x)|u|^{p-2}u\quad \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^{N}, \end{equation*}% where , is a potential well with the bottom . When and , for each and sufficiently large, we obtain that at least one positive solution exists for while at least two positive solutions exist for without any assumption on the integral , where is the principal eigenvalue of in with weight function , and is the corresponding principal eigenfunction. When and , for sufficiently large, we conclude that at least two positive solutions exist for small and ; under the classical assumption , at least three positive solutions exist for small and ; under the assumption , at least two positive solutions exist for and for some and .
