摘要

This paper is concerned with a class of nonlinear elliptic Neumann problems with double nonstandard growth, which naturally arise in the modeling of diffusion and equilibrium processes in heterogeneous and anisotropic media. More precisely, we investigate the existence of multiple weak solutions within anisotropic variable-exponent Sobolev spaces for the following elliptic problem: \(\begin{aligned} {\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} & - \varDelta _{\overrightarrow{m}(\cdot )} \xi -\varDelta _{\overrightarrow{n}(\cdot )} \xi + \delta (\sigma ) \left( |\xi |^{m_0(\sigma )-2}\xi + |\xi |^{n_0(\sigma )-2}\xi \right) = \mu \psi (\sigma , \xi ) \quad \text {in} \quad \mathcal {D},\\ & \sum _{i=1}^{N} \Big | \frac{\partial \xi }{\partial \sigma _{i}} \Big |^{m_{i}(\sigma )-2} \frac{\partial \xi }{\partial \sigma _{i}} \nu _{i} =\sum _{i=1}^{N} \Big | \frac{\partial \xi }{\partial \sigma _{i}} \Big |^{n_{i}(\sigma )-2} \frac{\partial \xi }{\partial \sigma _{i}} \nu _{i} = 0\quad \text {on} \quad \partial \mathcal {D}. \end{array}\right. } \end{aligned}\) - Δ m ( · ) ξ - Δ n ( · ) ξ + δ ( σ ) | ξ | m 0 ( σ ) - 2 ξ + | ξ | n 0 ( σ ) - 2 ξ = μ ψ ( σ , ξ ) in D , i = 1 N | ξ σ i | m i ( σ ) - 2 ξ σ i ν i = i = 1 N | ξ σ i | n i ( σ ) - 2 ξ σ i ν i = 0 on D . The unknown function \(\displaystyle \xi \) ξ represents a state variable such as concentration, temperature, or potential field, while the Neumann boundary condition corresponds to a natural no-flux condition. The presence of double nonstandard growth reflects the interaction of distinct nonlinear mechanisms in media with spatially dependent and direction-dependent properties. Under suitable structural assumptions on the nonlinear term, we prove the existence of at least three distinct weak solutions. The analysis relies on a variational approach based on a critical point theorem due to Ricceri, combined with the properties of anisotropic Sobolev spaces with variable exponents. The results extend several known multiplicity theorems for elliptic problems with standard or single nonstandard growth and contribute to the mathematical foundation of nonlinear models arising in applied sciences.
