In this paper, the authors consider the following modified quasilinear critical Kirchhoff-Schrödinger problem involving Stein-Weiss type nonlinearity: \[ \Big (a+b\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}|\nabla u|^pdx\Big)\Delta_p u-au\Delta_p(u^2)=\lambda f(x)|u|^{q-2}u+\Big(\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{|u|^{2p^*_{\beta,\mu}}}{|x-y|^{\mu}|y|^{\beta}}dy\Big)\frac{|u|^{2p^*_{\beta,\mu}-2}u}{|x|^{\beta}}, \] where \(2\leq p<N\), \(a>0\), \(b\geq 0\), \(\beta\geq 0\), \(0<\mu<N\), \(0<2\beta+\mu<\min\{2p,N\}\), \(2<q<2p^*\), \(N\geq 3\), \(f\in L^{\frac{2p^*}{2p^*-q}}(\mathbb{R}^N)\), \(\lambda >0\) is a parameter, \(p^*=\frac{Np}{N-p}\) is the Sobolev critical exponent and \(p^*_{\beta,\mu}=\frac{p}{2}\frac{(2N-2\beta -\mu)}{N-p}\) is the critical exponent with respect to the doubly weighted Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality (also called Stein-Weiss type inequality). By establishing a concentration-compactness argument for the above problem, the authors show the existence of infinitely many nontrivial solutions to the above problem. To be more precise, when \(2<q<2p\), by using symmetric mountain pass theorem, truncation technique and some analytical skills, there exists \(\lambda^*>0\) such that for all \(\lambda\in(0,\lambda^*)\), the above problem admits a sequence of nontrivial weak solutions \({u_k}\) in \(D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\cap L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N)\) with negative energy and \(u_k\rightarrow 0\) strongly in \(D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\) as \(k\rightarrow\infty\). When \(q=2p\), there exists a positive constant \(\hat{a}\) such that for all \(a>\hat{a}\) and for all \(\lambda\in\big(0,aS\|f\|_{\frac{p^*}{p^*-p}}^{-1}\big)\), the above problem has infinitely many nontrivial weak solutions in \(D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\cap L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N)\) by applying \(Z_2\)-symmetric version of mountain pass theorem. When \(2p<q<2p^*\), the above problem has infinitely many solutions in \(D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\cap L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N)\) for all \(\lambda >0\) by using \(Z_2\)-symmetric version of mountain pass theorem.
