“…On the other hand, we point out that our study extends to the case of anisotropic equations the results obtained in [22] and generalizes some other existing results on eigenvalue problems involving variable exponent growth conditions [11,12,20,21,23]. Finally, we note that equations of type (1) are models for various phenomena which arise from the study of electrorheological fluids (see [7,14,20,29,30]), image processing (see [6]), or the theory of elasticity (see [35]).…”
