Abstract

In this paper we establish the multiplicity of nontrivial weak solutions for the problem (Δ)αu+u=h(u)(-\Delta)^{\alpha} u +u= h(u) in Ωλ\Omega_{\lambda},\ u=0u=0 on Ωλ\partial\Omega_{\lambda}, where Ωλ=λΩ\Omega_{\lambda}=\lambda\Omega, Ω\Omega is a smooth and bounded domain in RN,N>2α\mathbb{R}^N, N>2\alpha, λ\lambda is a positive parameter, α(0,1)\alpha \in (0,1), (Δ)α(-\Delta)^{\alpha} is the fractional Laplacian and the nonlinear term h(u)h(u) has a subcritical growth. We use minimax methods, the Ljusternick-Schnirelmann and Morse theories to get multiplicity result depending on the topology of Ω\Omega.
