Multiplicity results for a Neumann boundary value problem involving the \(P(X)\)-Laplacian (Q424619)

The authors produce conditions so that the equation NEWLINE\[NEWLINE-\Delta_{p(x)} u + |u|^{p(x)-2}u = \lambda \alpha(x) f(u) + \beta(x)g(u)\text{ in}\,\, \Omega,\, \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} = 0\, \text{on}\,\, \partial \Omega,NEWLINE\]NEWLINE admits at least three nonzero solutions. Here \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^N\) with smooth boundary, and \(p(x)\) is bounded and greater than \(N\). The \(p(x)\)-Laplacian operator is defined as \(\Delta_{p(x)}u = \) div\((|\nabla u|^{p(x)-2}\nabla u)\).
