Abstract
Recently, the existence, the multiplicity and the concentration of solutions for the Kirchhoff type equations or systems have been extensively established by a number of authors. Such problems contain a nonlocal term which implies that the equation or system is no longer a pointwise identity. Thus, some researchers think that the nonlocal phenomenon will cause some mathematical difficulties. In this note, however, we will give a simple transformation so that the solutions of the autonomous Kirchhoff type equation or system are easily obtained by using the known solutions of the corresponding local equation or system. In particular, some qualitative properties of solutions for the local problems are also inherited.
