Abstract In this paper, we study the singularly perturbed fractional Choquard equation $$\begin{equation*}\varepsilon^{2s}(-{\it\Delta})^su+V(x)u=\varepsilon^{\mu-3}(\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^3}\frac{|u(y)|^{2^*_{\mu,s}}+F(u(y))}{|x-y|^\mu}dy)(|u|^{2^*_{\mu,s}-2}u+\frac{1}{2^*_{\mu,s}}f(u)) \, \text{in}\, \mathbb{R}^3, \end{equation*}$$ where ε > 0 is a small parameter, (−△)s denotes the fractional Laplacian of order s ∈ (0, 1), 0 < μ < 3, $2_{\mu ,s}^{\star }=\frac{6-\mu }{3-2s}$is the critical exponent in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality and fractional Laplace operator. F is the primitive of f which is a continuous subcritical term. Under a local condition imposed on the potential V, we investigate the relation between the number of positive solutions and the topology of the set where the potential attains its minimum values. In the proofs we apply variational methods, penalization techniques and Ljusternik-Schnirelmann theory.

We consider the fractional critical problem $A_{s}u=K(x)u^{(n+2s)/(n-2s)},u>0$ in $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA},u=0$ on $\unicode[STIX]{x2202}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$ , where $A_{s},s\in (0,1)$ , is the fractional Laplace operator and $K$ is a given function on a bounded domain $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$ of $\mathbb{R}^{n},n\geq 2$ . This is based on A. Bahri’s theory of critical points at infinity in Bahri [Critical Points at Infinity in Some Variational Problems, Pitman Research Notes in Mathematics Series, 182 (Longman Scientific & Technical, Harlow, 1989)]. We prove Bahri’s estimates in the fractional setting and we provide existence theorems for the problem when $K$ is close to 1.

This paper deals with the following fractional elliptic equation with critical exponent \[ \begin{cases} \displaystyle (-\Delta )^{s}u=u_{+}^{2_{s}^{*}-1}+\lambda u-\bar{\nu}\varphi_{1}, & \text{in}\ \Omega,\\ \displaystyle u=0, & \text{in}\ {{\mathfrak R}}^{N}\backslash \Omega, \end{cases}\] where $\lambda$ , $\bar {\nu }\in {{\mathfrak R}}$ , $s\in (0,1)$ , $2^{*}_{s}=({2N}/{N-2s})\,(N>2s)$ , $(-\Delta )^{s}$ is the fractional Laplace operator, $\Omega \subset {{\mathfrak R}}^{N}$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary and $\varphi _{1}$ is the first positive eigenfunction of the fractional Laplace under the condition $u=0$ in ${{\mathfrak R}}^{N}\setminus \Omega$ . Under suitable conditions on $\lambda$ and $\bar {\nu }$ and using a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method, we prove the fractional version of the Lazer-McKenna conjecture which says that the equation above has infinitely many solutions as $|\bar \nu | \to \infty$ .
