Combined effects of singular and exponential nonlinearities in fractional Kirchhoff problems (Q2062697)

The authors consider the following doubly nonlocal problem which involves a singular term and subcritical nonlinearity of exponential type \[ \begin{cases} M(\|u\|^{n/s})(-\Delta)^s_{n/s} u=\mu u^{-q}+u^{r-1}\exp(u^\beta)\quad\text{in }\Omega,\\ u>0 \quad\text{in }\Omega,\\ u=0 \quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n\backslash\Omega, \end{cases}\tag{1} \] where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded domain of \(\mathbb{R}^n\), \(n\geq 1\), $s\in (0, 1)$, $\mu>0$ is a real parameter, $\beta <n/(n-s)$, $q\in (0, 1)$ and $M(t)=t^{\theta-1}$, $t\geq 0$, where $\theta >1$ with $r>\theta n/s$. In fact, the paper treats the degenerate Kirchhoff case with subcritical nonlinearity. Based on the Nehari manifold techniques, the authors prove the existence of at least two (weak) solutions of problem (1).
