Abstract

In this paper, we study the generalized quasilinear Schrödinger equation

$$\begin{aligned} -\text {div}(g^2(u)\nabla u)+g(u)g'(u)|\nabla u|^2+V(x)u=(I_{\alpha }*|u|^{p})|u|^{p-2}u,\ \ \ x\in {{\mathbb {R}}}^N, \end{aligned}$$

where \(N\ge 3\), \(0<\alpha <N\), \(\frac{2(N+\alpha )}{N}< p<\frac{2(N+\alpha )}{N-2}\), \(V: {{\mathbb {R}}}^N\rightarrow {{\mathbb {R}}}\) is a potential function and \(I_{\alpha }\) is a Riesz potential. Under appropriate assumptions on g and V(x), we establish the existence of positive solutions and ground state solutions.
