Abstract

Let p,qp,q be functions on RN\mathbb{R}^{N} satisfying 1qpN1\ll q\ll p\ll N, we consider p(x)p(x)-Laplacian problems of the form \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{l}% -\Delta_{p(x)}u+V(x)\vert u\vert ^{p(x)-2}u=\lambda\vert u\vert ^{q(x)-2}u+g(x,u)\text{,}\\ u\in W^{1,p(x)}(\mathbb{R}^{N})\text{.}% \end{array} \right. To apply variational methods, we introduce a subspace XX of W1,p(x)(RN)W^{1,p(x)}(\mathbb{R}^N) as our working space. Compact embedding from XX into Lq(x)(RN)L^{q(x)}(\mathbb{R}^N) is proved, this enable us to get nontrivial solution of the problem; and two sequences of solutions going to \infty and 00 respectively, when g(x,)g(x,\cdot) is odd.
