This paper discusses the existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of $p\left(x\right)$-Kirchhoff type problems with Dirichlet boundary data of the following form $$\left\}\begin{array}{cc}-\left(a+b{\int }_{\Omega }\frac{1}{p\left(x\right)}{\left|\nabla u\right|}^{p\left(x\right)}dx\right){\mathrm{div}\left(\right|\nabla u|}^{p\left(x\right)-2}\nabla u)=f(x,u),\hfill & in\Omega \hfill \\ u=0\hfill & on\partial \Omega ,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $\Omega$ is a smooth open subset of ${ℝ}^N$ and $p\in C\left(\overline{\Omega }\right)$ with $N<p^{-}={inf}_{x\in \Omega }p\left(x\right)\le p^{+}={sup}_{x\in \Omega }p\left(x\right)<+\infty$, $a$, $b$ are positive constants and $f:\overline{\Omega }\times ℝ\to ℝ$ is a continuous function. The proof is based on critical point theory and variable exponent Sobolev space theory.

We consider the boundary value problem $$\begin{array}{c}{u}^{\text{'}\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)=f(t,u\left(t\right),u^{\text{'}}\left(t\right),u^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)),0<t<1,\\ u\left(0\right)=u^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)=0,u\left(1\right)={\int }_0^{1}g\left(s\right)u\left(s\right)\mathrm{d}s,\end{array}$$ where $f:[0,1]\times {ℝ}^3\to {ℝ}^{+}$, $g:[0,1]\to {ℝ}^{+}$ are continuous functions. The case when $f=f\left(u\right(t\left)\right)$ was studied in 2018 by Guendouz et al. Using the fixed-point theory on cones they established the existence of positive solutions. Here, by the method developed by ourselves very recently, we establish the existence, uniqueness and positivity of the solution under easily verified conditions and propose an iterative method for finding the solution. Some examples demonstrate the validity of the obtained theoretical...
