Abstract
We consider the multiplicity of the solutions for a class of a system of critical growth beam equations with periodic condition on t and Dirichlet boundary condition $$\{u_{tt}+u_{xxxx}=av+\frac{2{\alpha}}{{\alpha}+{\beta}}u_{+}^{{\alpha}-1}v_{+}^{\beta}+s{\phi}_{00}\;\;in\;(-\frac{\pi}{2},\;\frac{\pi}{2}){\times}R,\\u_{tt}+v_{xxxx}=bu+\frac{2{\alpha}}{{\alpha}+{\beta}}u_{+}^{\alpha}v_{+}^{{\beta}-1}+t{\phi}_{00}\;\;in\;(-\frac{\pi}{2},\;\frac{\pi}{2}){\times}R,$$ where ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$ > 1 are real constants, $u_+=max\{u,0\}$, ${\phi}_{00}$ is the eigenfunction corresponding to the positive eigenvalue ${\lambda}_00=1$ of the eigenvalue problem $u_{tt}+u_{xxxx}={\lambda}_{mn}u$. We show that the system has a positive solution under suitable conditions on the matrix $A=\(\array{0&a\\b&0}\)$, s > 0, t > 0, and next show that the system has another solution for the same conditions on A by the linking arguments.
