AB - <p>Using variational methods, we prove the existence of a nontrivial weak solution for the problem \begin{align*} \left\{ &nbsp;\begin{array}{ll} -\sum_{i=1}^N\partial_{x_i}\Big(|\partial_{x_i}u|^{p_i-2}\partial_{x_i}u\Big) =\lambda a(x)|u|^{q(x)-2}u+|u|^{p^\ast-2}u, &amp; \text{ in } \Omega, &nbsp;\\ u = 0, &amp; \text{ in } \partial\Omega, \end{array} \right. \end{align*} where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N \geq 3$) is a bounded domain with smooth boundary $\partial\Omega$, $2 \leq p_i &lt; N$, $i = \overline{1, N}$, $q: \overline \Omega \to (1, p^\ast)$ is a continuous function, $p^\ast=\frac{N}{\sum_{i=1}^N \frac{1}{p_i}-1}$ is the critical exponent for this class of problem, and $\lambda$ is a parameter.</p>
