Existence and multiplicity of solutions for a Kirchhoff-type problem with indefinite nonlinearity in \(\mathbb {R}^3\)

摘要

In this work, we study a class of Kirchhoff-type equations with indefinite nonlinearities of the form \(-\left( 1+\lambda \int _{\mathbb {R}^3} |\nabla u|^2\right) \Delta u = f(x)|u|^{\gamma -2}u\) - 1 + λ R 3 | u | 2 Δ u = f ( x ) | u | γ - 2 u in \(\mathbb {R}^3\) R 3 , where \(\lambda >0\) λ > 0 is a parameter. Using variational methods and a simplified version of the concentration-compactness principle, we overcome the lack of compactness inherent to the unbounded domain. Under suitable conditions on f, we provide a precise description of the bifurcation phenomena occurring with respect to the parameter \(\lambda \) λ . We show that there exists an extremal parameter \(\lambda ^*\) λ which acts as a turning point where two branches of solutions collapse and vanish. Our results generalize previous studies by removing the boundedness condition on the domain and considering sign-changing nonlinearities.
