contents In this paper, we consider a generalized polyharmonic eigenvalue problem of the form $A(u)= λh(u)$ in a bounded smooth domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions in the setting of higher-order Orlicz-Sobolev spaces. Here, $A$ is a very general operator depending on $u$ and arbitrary higher-order derivatives of $u$, whose growth is governed by an Orlicz function, and $h$ is a lower order term. Combining the theories of pseudomonotone operators with complementary systems, we prove that this eigenvalue problem has an infinite number of eigenfunctions and that the corresponding sequence of eigenvalues tends to infinity. We point out that the $Δ_2$-condition is not assumed for the involved Orlicz functions. Finally, we prove a first regularity result for eigenfunctions by following a De Giorgi's iteration scheme.
