Infinitely many solutions for a class of modified nonlinear fourth-order elliptic equations on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the following fourth-order elliptic equations $$ \triangle^{2}u-\Delta u+V(x)u-\frac{\kappa}{2}\Delta(u^{2})u=f(x,u),\rm \mbox{ \ \ }in~\mathbb{R}^{N}, $$ where $N\leq6$, $\kappa\geq0$. Under some appropriate assumptions on $V(x)$ and $f(x, u)$, we prove the existence of infinitely many negative-energy solutions for the above system via the genus properties in critical point theory. Some recent results from the literature are extended.

Keywords: fourth-order elliptic equations, sublinear, nontrivial solutions, genus theory
