摘要

We study the following Kirchhoff equation: - (1 + b integral(R3) vertical bar Delta u vertical bar(2)dx)Delta u + V(x)u = f(x, u), x is an element of R-3. A feature of this paper is that the nonlinearity f and the potential V are indefinite, hence sign-changing. Under some appropriate assumptions on V and f, we prove the existence of two different solutions of the equation via the Ekeland variational principle and the mountain pass theorem.
