Abstract: We consider the following problem (P) �egin{cases} -Delta_{p}u= c(x)|u|^{q-1}u+mu | abla u|^{p}+h(x) & mbox{ in }Omega, u=0 & mbox{ on } partialOmega, end{cases} where Omega is a bounded set in mathbbRN (Ngeq3) with a smooth boundary, 1<p<N, q>0, muinmathbbR, and c and h belong to Lk(Omega) for some k>fracNp. In this paper, we assume that cgneqq0 a.e. in Omega and h without sign condition, then we prove the existence of at least two bounded solutions under the condition that |c|k and |h|k are suitably small. For this purpose, we use the Mountain Pass theorem, on an equivalent problem to (P) with variational structure. Here, the main difficulty is that the nonlinearity term considered does not satisfy Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz condition. The key idea is to replace the former condition by the extbf{nonquadraticity condition at infinity}.
