Positive ground state solutions for fractional Kirchhoff type equations with critical growth

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.     

Ground states for nonlinear Kirchhoff equations with critical growth

This paper is concerned with the existence, multiplicity and concentration behavior of positive solutions for the critical Kirchhoff-type problem $$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l@{\quad }l} -\left(\varepsilon ^2a+\varepsilon b\int _{\mathbb{R }^{3}}|\nabla u|^2\right)\Delta u+V(x)u=u^{2^*-1}+\lambda f(u)&\text{ in}~{\mathbb{R }^{3}},\\ u\in H^1({\mathbb{R }^{3}}), ~u(x)>0&\text{ in}~{\mathbb{R }^{3}}, \end{array}\right. \end{aligned}$$ where $\varepsilon $ and $\lambda $ are positive parameters, and $a,b>0$ are constants, $2^*(=6)$ is the critical Sobolev exponent in dimension three, $V$ is a positive continuous potential satisfying some conditions, and $f$ is a subcritical nonlinear term. We use the variational methods to relate the number of solutions with the topology of the set where $V$ attains its minimum, for all sufficiently large $\lambda $ and small $\varepsilon $ .     

Ground state solutions for a class of fractional Hamiltonian systems

In this paper we study the following fractional Hamiltonian systems

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{lllll} -_{t}D^{\alpha }_{\infty }(_{-\infty }D^{\alpha }_{t}x(t))- L(t).x(t)+\nabla W(t,x(t))=0, \\ x\in H^{\alpha }(\mathbb {R}, \mathbb {R}^{N}), \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

where \(\alpha \in \left( {1\over {2}}, 1\right] ,\ t\in \mathbb {R}, x\in \mathbb {R}^N,\ _{-\infty }D^{\alpha }_{t}\) and \(_{t}D^{\alpha }_{\infty }\) are the left and right Liouville–Weyl fractional derivatives of order \(\alpha \) on the whole axis \(\mathbb {R}\) respectively, \(L:\mathbb {R}\longrightarrow \mathbb {R}^{2N}\) and \(W: \mathbb {R}\times \mathbb {R}^{N}\longrightarrow \mathbb {R}\) are suitable functions. One ground state solution is obtained by applying the monotonicity trick of Jeanjean and the concentration-compactness principle in the case where the matrix L(t) is positive definite and \(W \in C^{1}(\mathbb {R}\times \mathbb {R}^{N},\mathbb {R})\) is superquadratic but does not satisfy the usual Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition.

     

Ground state of solutions for a class of fractional Schrödinger equations with critical Sobolev exponent and steep potential well

In this paper, we study the following fractional Schrödinger equations: (1) where (?△)^α is the fractional Laplacian operator with , 0≤s ≤2α , λ >0, κ and β are real parameter. is the critical Sobolev exponent. We prove a fractional Sobolev‐Hardy inequality and use it together with concentration compact theory to get a ground state solution. Moreover, concentration behaviors of nontrivial solutions are obtained when the coefficient of the potential function tends to infinity.     

Existence of solutions for critical fractional Kirchhoff problems

Consider the following fractional Kirchhoff equations involving critical exponent: where (?Δ)^α is the fractional Laplacian operator with α ∈(0,1), , , λ ₂>0 and is the critical Sobolev exponent, V (x ) and k (x ) are functions satisfying some extra hypotheses. Based on the principle of concentration compactness in the fractional Sobolev space, the minimax arguments, Pohozaev identity, and suitable truncation techniques, we obtain the existence of a nontrivial weak solution for the previously mentioned equations without assuming the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition on the subcritical nonlinearity f .

Ground state solutions for a modified fractional Schrödinger equation with critical exponent

In this paper, we study the existence of ground state solutions for the modified fractional Schrödinger equations $${(-\mathrm{\Delta })}^{\alpha }u+\mu u+\kappa [{(-\mathrm{\Delta })}^{\alpha }{u}^2]u=\sigma |u{|}^{p-1}u+|u{|}^{q-2}u,x\in R^N,$$ where $N\ge 2$, $\alpha \in (0,1)$, $\mu$, $\sigma$ and $\kappa$ are positive parameters, $2<p+1<q\le 2_{\alpha }^{\ast }:=\frac{2N}{N-2\alpha }$, ${(-\mathrm{\Delta })}^{\alpha }$ denotes the fractional Laplacian of order $\alpha$. For the case $2<p+1<q<2_{\alpha }^{\ast }$ and the case $q=2_{\alpha }^{\ast }$, the existence results of ground state solutions are given, respectively.

In this paper, we are concerned with a class of fourth order elliptic equations of Kirchhoff type with singular potentials in $\mathbb{R}^{N}.$ The existence of ground state and nodal solutions are obtained by using variational methods and properties of Hessian matric. Furthermore, the "energy doubling" property of nodal solutions is also explored.     

Ground state solution for a class fractional Hamiltonian systems

In this paper, we consider a class of Hamiltonian systems of the form $_tD_\infty^\alpha(_{-\infty} D_t^\alpha u(t))+L(t) u(t)-\nabla W(t,u(t))=0$ where $\alpha\in(\frac{1}{2},1)$, $_{-\infty}D_t^\alpha$ and $_{t}D_\infty^\alpha$ are left and right Liouville-Weyl fractional derivatives of order $\alpha$ on the whole axis $R$ respectively. Under weaker superquadratic conditions on the nonlinearity and asymptotically periodic assumptions, ground state solution is obtained by mainly using Local Mountain Pass Theorem, Concentration-Compactness Principle and a new form of Lions Lemma respect to fractional differential equations.
