Abstract
By using variational methods and critical point theory in an appropriate Orlicz-Sobolev setting, the authors establish the existence of infinitely many non-negative weak solutions to a non-homogeneous Neumann problem. They also provide some particular cases and an example to illustrate the main results in this paper.
