Abstract

In this paper we deal with the following fractional Kirchhoff equation \begin{equation*} \left(p+q(1-s) \iint_{\mathbb{R}^{2N}} \frac{|u(x)- u(y)|^{2}}{|x-y|^{N+2s}} \, dx\,dy \right)(-\Delta)^{s}u = g(u) \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^{N}, \end{equation*} where s(0,1)s\in (0,1), N2N\geq 2, p>0p>0, qq is a small positive parameter and g:RRg: \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} is an odd function satisfying Berestycki-Lions type assumptions. By using minimax arguments, we establish a multiplicity result for the above equation, provided that qq is sufficiently small.
