Abstract
In this paper, we establish the existence of at least three weak solutions for a parametric double eigenvalue quasi-linear ellipticpx,qx-Kirchhoff-type potential system. Our approach is based on a variational method, and a three critical point theorem is obtained by Bonano and Marano.

Summary
System (1) is a generalization of the elliptic equation associated with the following Kirchhoff equation, introduced by Kirchhoff in [1]: z2u ρ zt2 −. By using the mountain pass theorem, the authors in [24] showed the existence of nontrivial solutions for system (1) when (p, q) ∈ [C(RN)]2(N ≥ 2), M1(t) and M2(t) are continuous functions such that M1(t) M2(t), a(x) b(x) 0, λ 1, and F ∈ C1(RN × R2, R) verifies some mixed growth conditions. E goal of this work is to establish the existence of a definite interval in which λ lies such that system (1) admits at least three weak solutions by applying the following very recent abstract critical point result of Bonanno and Marano For any p ∈ C+(RN), we define the variable exponent Lebesgue space as
