Kirchhoff-type problems involving subcritical and superlinear nonlinearities satisfying no further condition

In this note, we deal with a problem of the type \cases {-h\left ( \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u(x)|^2dx\right ) \Delta u=f(u) & in $\Omega$\cr & \cr u_{|\partial\Omega}=0\ .\cr} As an application of a new general multiplicity result, we establish the existence of at least three solutions, two of which are global minima of the related energy functional. The only condition assumed on $f$ is that it be subcritical and superlinear: no condition on the behaviour of $f$ at $0$ is requested.
