A degenerate Kirchhoff-type problem involving variable $s(\cdot)$-order fractional $p(\cdot)$-Laplacian with weights (2308.08007v1)

Abstract: This paper deals with a class of nonlocal variable $s(.)$-order fractional $p(.)$-Kirchhoff type equations: \begin{eqnarray*} \left{ \begin{array}{ll} \mathcal{K}\left(\int_{\mathbb{R}^{2N}}\frac{1}{p(x,y)}\frac{|\varphi(x)-\varphi(y)|^{p(x,y)}}{|x-y|^{N+s(x,y){p(x,y)}}} \,dx\,dy\right)(-\Delta)^{s(\cdot)}_{p(\cdot)}\varphi(x) =f(x,\varphi) \quad \mbox{in }\Omega, \ \varphi=0 \quad \mbox{on }\mathbb{R}^N\backslash\Omega. \end{array} \right. \end{eqnarray*} Under some suitable conditions on the functions $p,s, \mathcal{K}$ and $f$, the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for the above problem are obtained. Our results cover the degenerate case in the $p(\cdot)$ fractional setting.
