Variable-exponent double-phase problems with parametric logistic reaction

Giuseppe Failla, Leszek Gasinski, Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou

Abstract:
We prove the existence and multiplicity of solutions for a variable-exponent double-phase problem with parametric logistic reaction term. Combining variational and truncation methods with homological critical group theory, we prove the existence of at least one or two solutions with respect to a positive parameter, i.e., a bifurcation result.
