A nonlinear elliptic system involving the p-Laplacian is considered in the whole R. Existence of nontrivial solutions is obtained by applying critical point theory; also a regularity result is established.

In this paper, we study the spectrum for the following eigenvalue problem with the p-biharmonic operator involving the Hardy term: ${\Delta \left(\right|\Delta u|}^{p-2}{\Delta u)=\lambda (\left|u\right|}^{p-2}u)/\left(\delta {\left(x\right)}^{2p}\right)$ in Ω, $u\in W{₀}^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)$. By using the variational technique and the Hardy-Rellich inequality, we prove that the above problem has at least one increasing sequence of positive eigenvalues.

We prove an approximation theorem in generalized Sobolev spaces with variable exponent $W^{1,p\left(·\right)}\left(\Omega \right)$ and we give an application of this approximation result to a necessary condition in the calculus of variations.

We study the existence of solutions for a p-biharmonic problem with a critical Sobolev exponent and Navier boundary conditions, using variational arguments. We establish the existence of a precise interval of parameters for which our problem admits a nontrivial solution.

The existence of at least one non-decreasing sequence of positive eigenvalues for the problem driven by both $p(·)$-Harmonic and $p(·)$-biharmonic operators $$\begin{array}{c}{\Delta }_{p\left(x\right)}^{2}u-{\Delta }_{p\left(x\right)}u=\lambda w\left(x\right){\left|u\right|}^{q\left(x\right)-2}u\text{in}\Omega ,\\ u\in W^{2,p(·)}\left(\Omega \right)\cap W_0^{1,p(·)}\left(\Omega \right),\end{array}$$ is proved by applying a local minimization and the theory of the generalized Lebesgue-Sobolev spaces $L^{p(·)}\left(\Omega \right)$ and $W^{m,p(·)}\left(\Omega \right)$.

We consider the following quasilinear Neumann boundary-value problem of the type $$ \begin {cases} -\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^{N}\frac {\partial }{\partial x_{i}}a_{i}\Big (x,\frac {\partial u}{\partial x_{i}}\Big ) + b(x)|u|^{p_{0}(x)-2}u = f(x,u)+ g(x,u) &\text {in} \ \Omega , \\ \quad \dfrac {\partial u}{\partial \gamma } = 0 &\text {on} \ \partial \Omega . \end {cases} $$ We prove the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for our equation in the anisotropic variable exponent Sobolev...

We prove the existence of solutions to nonlinear parabolic problems of the following type: $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\displaystyle \frac{\partial b\left(u\right)}{\partial t}}+A\left(u\right)=f+\mathrm{div}\left(\Theta (x;t;u)\right)\hfill & \text{in}Q,\hfill \\ u(x;t)=0\hfill & \text{on}\partial \Omega \times [0;T],\hfill \\ b\left(u\right)(t=0)=b\left(u_0\right)\hfill & \text{on}\Omega ,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $b:ℝ\to ℝ$ is a strictly increasing function of class ${𝒞}^1$, the term $$A\left(u\right)=-\mathrm{div}\left(a\right(x,t,u,\nabla u\left)\right)$$ is an operator of Leray-Lions type which satisfies the classical Leray-Lions assumptions of Musielak type, $\Theta :\Omega \times [0;T]\times ℝ\to ℝ$ is a Carathéodory, noncoercive function which satisfies the following condition: ${sup}_{\left|s\right|\le k}\left|\Theta (·,·,s)\right|\in E_{\psi }\left(Q\right)$ for all $k>0$, where $\psi$ is the Musielak complementary function of $\Theta$, and the second term $f$ belongs to $L^1\left(Q\right)$.
