Precisely, along the paper we prove the existence of at least three non-trivial solutions for this problem in a suitable left neighborhood of any eigenvalue of $(-\\Delta)^s$. At this purpose we employ a variational theorem of mixed type (one of the so-called $\\nabla$-theorems).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-10-29T14:14:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35S15", "47G20", "45G05" ], "keywords": [ "nonlocal fractional problems", "multiple solutions", "nonlocal fractional equations", "satisfies natural superlinear", "fractional laplace operator" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
