Abstract
In this paper, we study the spectrum for the following eigenvalue problem with the $p$-biharmonic operator involving the Hardy term: $$\varDelta (|\varDelta u|^{p-2}\varDelta u)= \lambda \frac {|u|^{p-2}u}{\delta (x)^{2p}} \hbox { in } \varOmega , \ u\in W_0^{2,p}(\varOmega ).$$ By using the variational technique and the Hardy–Rellich inequality, we prove that the above problem has at least one increasing sequence of positive eigenvalues.
