Existence and multiplicity of solutions for a differential inclusion problem involving the p(x)-Laplacian

In this article we consider the differential inclusion $$displaylines{ -hbox{div}(| abla u|^{p(x)-2} abla u)in partial F(x,u) quadhbox{in }Omega,cr u=0 quad hbox{on }partial Omega }$$ which involves the $p(x)$-Laplacian. By applying the nonsmooth Mountain Pass Theorem, we obtain at least one...

description In this article we consider the differential inclusion $$displaylines{ -hbox{div}(| abla u|^{p(x)-2} abla u)in partial F(x,u) quadhbox{in }Omega,cr u=0 quad hbox{on }partial Omega }$$ which involves the $p(x)$-Laplacian. By applying the nonsmooth Mountain Pass Theorem, we obtain at least one nontrivial solution; and by applying the symmetric Mountain Pass Theorem, we obtain k-pairs of nontrivial solutions in $W_{0}^{1,p(x)}(Omega)$.
