Finite time blow up of solutions of the Kirchhoff-type equation with variable exponents

Abstract

In this work, we investigate the following Kirchhoff-type equation with variable exponent nonlinearities u_{tt}-M(‖∇u‖²)△u+|u_{t}|^{p(x)-2}u_{t}=|u|^{q(x)-2}u. We proved the blow up of solutions in finite time by using modified energy functional method.
