Abstract

The existence of at least three weak solutions is established for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations involving the p(x)-biharmonic operators with Navier boundary value conditions. The technical approach is mainly based on a three critical points theorem due to Ricceri [11].

Keywords

p(x)-biharmonic; three solutions; existence;
