Abstract

We study the existence, multiplicity and concentration behavior of positive solutions for the nonlinear Kirchhoff type problem where ε>0 is a parameter and a,b>0 are constants; V is a positive continuous potential satisfying some conditions and f is a subcritical nonlinear term. We relate the number of solutions with the topology of the set where V attains its minimum. The results are proved by using the variational methods.
