In particular we deal with functionals that can be unbounded near $0$, and prove the existence of a ground state and infinitely many critical points for such functionals. These results are then applied to three classes of problems: the {\\it prescribed energy problem} for a family of functionals depending on a parameter, problems involving the {\\it affine} $p$-Laplacian operator, and degenerate Kirchhoff type problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-09-08T15:43:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "nehari manifold method", "functionals", "degenerate kirchhoff type problems", "applications", "real banach space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
