Two nonzero weak solutions for a quasilinear Kirchhoff type problem

We study the existence of two nonzero solutions for a class of quasilinear Kirchhoff problems. The approach is based on the variational methods. Our nonlinerity is contrast to some previous results is that superlinear growth at infinity.
