Summary

Introduction and main results

Let us consider the following nonlinear elliptic problem:. where p : RN → R is Lipschitz continuous and 1 < p− := infRN p(x) ≤ supRN p(x) := p+ < N, V is the new potential function, and the nonlinear term f is sublinear with some precise assumptions that we state below. The study of various mathematical problems with variable exponent growth condition has received considerable attention in recent years. These problems appear in a lot of applications, such as image processing models We refer to [4, 14,15,16,17,18, 23,24,25] for the study of the p(x)-Laplacian equations and the corresponding variational problems It is well known, the main difficulty in treating problem (P) in RN arises from the lack of compactness of the Sobolev embeddings, which prevents from checking directly that the energy functional associated with (P) satisfies the C-condition.
