Summary

Introduction

The main objective of this paper is to establish the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for the following problem:. Since the setting is periodic, the global Palais–Smale condition can fail due to the invariance of the functional under the Z2-translations To tackle this problem, Du and Weth [20] proved the existence of a mountain pass solution and a ground state solution for local problem (1.1) but without the singular term in the case when V (x) ≡ α > 0, 2 < p < 4, and f (u) = |u|p–2u. Alves and Figueiredo [3] proved the existence of a ground state solution to problem (1.1) without the singular term but with a nonlinearity of the Moser–Trudinger type. We give an Appendix to the proofs of all results which have been used in the proof of the main theorem

We begin by defining the Hilbert space
We further define the functionals
The associated energy functional

For any β
We have
Then there exist u

Therefore is bounded
