Abstract: In this paper, we consider weighted fourth order nonhomogeneous elliptic problem with variable exponent. Under appropriate conditions, interval of a numerical parameter sufficiently small is derived for which the existence results are obtained. The proof relies on simple variational arguments based on Ekeland's variational principle.
Keywords: p(x)-biharmonic operator; eigenvalue; Ekeland's variational principle; generalised Sobolev spaces; mountain pass theorem; weak solution.
