Fractional laplacian, Pohozaev identityAbstract
In this note we prove the existence of radially symmetric solutions for a class of fractional Schrodinger equation in R^N of the form (-\Delat)^s u + V (x) u = g(u); where the nonlinearity g does not satisfy the usual Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. Our approach is variational in nature, and leans on a Pohozaev identity for the fractional laplacian.References
