We study a quasilinear elliptic problem -div (∇ Φ(∇ u))+V(x)N'(u)=f(u) with anisotropic convex function Φ on whole ℝn. To prove existence of a nontrivial weak solution we use mountain pass theorem for a functional defined on anisotropic Orlicz-Sobolev space W1 LΦ(ℝn). As the domain is unbounded we need to use Lions type lemma formulated for Young functions. Our assumptions broaden the class of considered functions Φ so our result generalizes earlier analogous results proved in isotropic setting.
