Partial differential equations with nonlinearities involving variable exponents have attracted an increasing amount of attention in recent years. The development, mainly by Růžička [47], of a theory modeling the behavior of electrorheological fluids, an important class of non-Newtonian fluids, seems to have boosted a still far from completed effort to study and understand this type of equations. Other important applications relate to image processing [8], elasticity [56] or flows in porous media [2].
