Abstract

In this paper, we study a class of Neumann boundary value problems for Kirchhoff-type elliptic equations whose nonlinear terms on the right-hand side involve integral expressions. By applying Ekeland’s variational principle and the critical point theory in Sobolev spaces with generalized variable exponents, we establish the conditions that guarantee the existence of a nontrivial weak solution to the problem.
