Multi-bump solutions for a Kirchhoff problem type

Abstract: In this paper, we are going to study the existence of solution for the following Kirchhoff problem $$ \left{ \begin{array}{l} M\biggl(\displaystyle\int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}|\nabla u|^{2} dx +\displaystyle\int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}} \lambda a(x)+1)u^{2} dx\biggl) \biggl(- \Delta u + (\lambda a(x)+1)u\biggl) = f(u) \mbox{ in } \,\,\, \mathbb{R}^{3}, \ \mbox{}\ u \in H^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{3}). \end{array} \right. $$ Assuming that the nonnegative function $a(x)$ has a potential well with $int (a^{-1}({0}))$ consisting of $k$ disjoint components $\Omega_1, \Omega_2, ....., \Omega_k$ and the nonlinearity $f(t)$ has a subcritical growth, we are able to establish the existence of positive multi-bump solutions by variational methods.
