Abstract: | We study the existence of positive ground state solutions for the following fractional Kirchhoff type equation where a,b > 0 are constants, μ is a positive parameter, with and s ∈ (0,1). Under suitable assumptions on V(x), by using a monotonicity trick and a global compactness principle, we prove that the equation admits a positive ground state solution if and μ > 0 large enough. |
