Infinitely many solutions for Kirchhoff-type equations involving critical growth in Orlicz-Sobolev with negative energies

Abstract

We investigate a class of Kirchhoff-type equations characterized by critical growth within Orlicz-Sobolev spaces. The main result establishes the existence of infinitely many solutions with negative energy. Using an adapted concentration-compactness principle and advanced variational methods, we overcome key challenges such as non-compactness and non-differentiability to the associated functionals. This work extends existing results to more general functional spaces, offering new insights into nonlocal nonlinear equations.
