Existence and multiplicity of solutions for a Steklov problem involving the p(x)-Laplace operator

Mostafa Allaoui, Abdel Rachid El Amrouss, Anass Ourraoui

Abstract:
In this article we study the nonlinear Steklov boundary-value problem
$$\displaylines{ \Delta_{p(x)} u=|u|^{p(x)-2}u \quad \hbox{in } \Omega, \cr |\nabla u|^{p(x)-2}\frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu}=\lambda f(x,u) \quad \hbox{on } \partial\Omega. }$$
Using the variational method, under appropriate assumptions on f, we obtain results on existence and multiplicity of solutions.
