Abstract: Consider a nonlinear Kirchhoff type equation as follows �egin{equation*} left{ �egin{array}{ll} -left( aint_{mathbb{R}^{N}}| abla u|^{2}dx+b ight) Delta u+u=f(x)leftvert u ightvert ^{p-2}u & ext{ in }mathbb{R}^{N}, \ uin H^{1}(mathbb{R}^{N}), & end{array}% ight. end{equation*}% where Ngeq1,a,b>0,2<p<minleft4,2astight(2ast=infty for N=1,2 and 2ast=2N/(N2) for Ngeq3) and the function finC(mathbbRN)capLinfty(mathbbRN). Distinguishing from the existing results in the literature, we are more interested in the geometric properties of the energy functional related to the above problem. Furthermore, the nonexistence, existence, unique and multiplicity of positive solutions are proved dependent on the parameter a and the dimension N. In particular, we conclude that a unique positive solution exists for 1leqNleq4 while at least two positive solutions are permitted for Ngeq5.
