In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions to p−Kirchhoff elliptic problem
a + μ ∫ ℝ N ( | ∇ u | p + V ( x ) | u | p ) dx τ − Δ p u + V ( x ) | u | p − 2 u = f ( x , u ) , in ℝ N , u ( x ) > 0 , in ℝ N , u ∈ D 1 , p ( ℝ N ) , $$\begin{array}{@{}rcl@{}} \left\{\begin{array}{lllllll} &\left(a+\mu\left({\int}_{\mathbb{R}^{N}}\!(|\nabla u|^{p}+V(x)|u|^{p})dx\right)^{\tau}\right)\left(-{\Delta}_{p}u+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u\right)=f(x,u), \quad \text{in}\; \mathbb{R}^{N}, \\ &u(x)>0, \;\;\text{in}\;\; \mathbb{R}^{N},\;\; u\in \mathcal{D}^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^{N}), \end{array}\right.\!\!\!\! \\ \end{array} $$ (0.1)
where a, μ > 0, τ > 0, and f(x, u) = h 1(x)|u| m−2 u + λ h 2(x)|u| r−2 u with the parameter λ ∈ ℝ, 1 < p < N, 1 < r < m < p ∗ = pN N − p , and the functions h 1 (x), h 2(x) ∈ C(ℝN) satisfy some conditions. The potential V(x) > 0 is continuous in ℝ N and V(x)→0 as |x|→+∞. The nontrivial solution forb Eq. (1.1) will be obtained by the Nehari manifold and fibering maps methods and Mountain Pass Theorem.
