The present paper deals with the spectrum of a fourth order nonlinear eigenvalue problem involving variable exponent conditions and a sign-changing potential. The main result of this paper establishes the existence of two positive constants λ0 and λ1 with λ0 ≤ λ1 such that every λ ∈ [λ1,+∞) is an eigenvalue, while λ ∈ (−∞, λ0) cannot be an eigenvalue of the above problem.
