AbstractIn this paper we consider the fractional nonlinear Schrödinger equation\varepsilon^{2s}(-\Delta)^{s}v+V(x)v=f(v),\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^{N},where {s\in(0,1)}, {N\geq 2}, f is a nonlinearity satisfying Berestycki–Lions type conditions and {V\in C(\mathbb{R}^{N},\mathbb{R})} is a positive potential. For {\varepsilon>0} small, we prove the existence of at least {{\rm cupl}(K)+1} positive solutions, where K is a set of local minima in a bounded potential well and {{\rm cupl}(K)} denotes the cup-length of K. By means of a variational approach, we analyze the topological difference between two levels of an indefinite functional in a neighborhood of expected solutions. Since the nonlocality comes in the decomposition of the space directly, we introduce a new fractional center of mass, via a suitable seminorm. Some other delicate aspects arise strictly related to the presence of the nonlocal operator. By using regularity results based on fractional De Giorgi classes, we show that the found solutions decay polynomially and concentrate around some point of K for ε small.

AbstractIn this paper we investigate the following nonlocal problem with singular term and critical Hardy-Sobolev exponent$$\begin{array}{} ({\rm P}) \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^s u = \displaystyle{\frac{\lambda}{u^\gamma}+\frac{|u|^{2_\alpha^*-2}u}{|x|^\alpha}} \ \ \text{ in } \ \ \Omega, \\ u >0 \ \ \text{ in } \ \ \Omega, \quad u = 0 \ \ \text{ in } \ \ \mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus \Omega, \end{array} \right. \end{array}$$where Ω ⊂ ℝN is an open bounded domain with Lipschitz boundary, 0 < s < 1, λ > 0 is a parameter, 0 < α < 2s < N, 0 < γ < 1 < 2 < $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle 2_s^* \end{array}$, where $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle 2_s^* = \frac{2N}{N-2s} ~\text{and}~ 2_\alpha^* = \frac{2(N-\alpha)}{N-2s} \end{array}$ are the fractional critical Sobolev and Hardy Sobolev exponents respectively. The fractional Laplacian (–Δ)s with s ∈ (0, 1) is the nonlinear nonlocal operator defined on smooth functions by$$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle (-\Delta)^s u(x)=-\frac{1}{2} \displaystyle\int_{\mathbb{R}^N} \frac{u(x+y)+u(x-y)-2u(x)}{|y|^{N+2s}}{\rm d }y, \;\; \text{ for all }\, x \in \mathbb{R}^N. \end{array}$$By combining variational and approximation methods, we provide the existence of two positive solutions to the problem (P).

AbstractThe paper is concerned with the existence of positive solutions for the nonlinear eigenvalue problem with singularity and the superlinear semipositone problem of higher order delay differential equations. The main results are obtained by using Guo-Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem in cones. These results extend some of the existing literature.

In this paper, we develop a direct blowing-up and rescaling argument for nonlinear equations involving nonlocal elliptic operators including the fractional Laplacian. Instead of using the conventional extension method introduced by Caffarelli and Silvestre to localize the problem, we work directly on the nonlocal operator. Using the defining integral, by an elementary approach, we carry on a blowing-up and rescaling argument directly on the nonlocal equations and thus obtain a priori estimates on the positive solutions. Based on this estimate and the Leray–Schauder degree theory, we establish the existence of positive solutions. We believe that the ideas introduced here can be applied to problems involving more general nonlocal operators.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the existence of two positive solutions to subcritical and critical fractional integro-differential equations driven by a nonlocal operator L K p . Specifically, we get multiple solutions to the following fractional p -Laplacian equations with the help of fibering maps and Nehari manifold. − Δ p s u x = λ u q + u r , u > 0   in   Ω , u = 0 , in   ℝ N \ Ω . . Our results extend the previous results in some respects.

In this paper we show the existence of solution for the following class of semipositone problem P$$\left\{\matrix{-\Delta u & = & h(x)(f(u)-a) & \hbox{in} & {\open R}^N, \cr u & \gt & 0 & \hbox{in} & {\open R}^N, \cr}\right.$$ where N ≥ 3, a > 0, h : ℝN → (0, + ∞) and f : [0, + ∞) → [0, + ∞) are continuous functions with f having a subcritical growth. The main tool used is the variational method together with estimates that involve the Riesz potential.
