Existence and concentration of ground state solutions for a class of fractional Schrödinger equations

Abstract

In this paper, by using variational methods, we study the existence and concentration of ground state solutions for the following fractional Schrödinger equation ( − Δ ) α u + V ( x ) u = A ( ϵ x ) f ( u ) , x ∈ R N , where α ∈ ( 0 , 1 ), ϵ is a positive parameter, N > 2 α, ( − Δ ) α stands for the fractional Laplacian, f is a continuous function with subcritical growth, V ∈ C ( R N , R ) is a Z N -periodic function and A ∈ C ( R N , R ) satisfies some appropriate assumptions.
