On a class of fractional Laplacian problems with variable exponents and indefinite weights

Let Ω ⊂ R N , N ≥ 2 , be a bounded smooth domain. In this paper, we consider a class of fractional Laplacian problems of the form ( Δ ) p 1 ( x , . ) s u ( x ) + ( Δ ) p 2 ( x , . ) s u ( x ) + | u | q ( x ) - 2 u = λ V 1 ( x ) | u ( x ) | r 1 ( x ) - 2 u ( x ) - μ V 2 ( x ) | u ( x ) | r 2 ( x ) -...

Summary:Let Ω ⊂ R N , N ≥ 2 , be a bounded smooth domain. In this paper, we consider a class of fractional Laplacian problems of the form ( Δ ) p 1 ( x , . ) s u ( x ) + ( Δ ) p 2 ( x , . ) s u ( x ) + | u | q ( x ) - 2 u = λ V 1 ( x ) | u ( x ) | r 1 ( x ) - 2 u ( x ) - μ V 2 ( x ) | u ( x ) | r 2 ( x ) - 2 u ( x ) in Ω , u ( x ) = 0 in ∂ Ω , where ( Δ ) p i ( . , . ) s ( 0 < s < 1 ) , i = 1 , 2 , are the fractional p i ( . , . ) -Laplacians, p i ∈ C ( Ω ¯ × Ω ¯ ) , q , r i ∈ C ( Ω ¯ ) , i = 1 , 2 while λ , μ are two positive parameters, V 1 , V 2 are weight functions in generalized Lebesgue spaces L α 1 ( . ) ( Ω ) and L α 2 ( . ) ( Ω ) respectively such that V 1 may change sign in Ω and V 2 ( x ) ≥ 0 for all x ∈ Ω . Using variational techniques and Ekeland’s variational principle, we establish some existence results for the problem in an appropriate space of functions.
