Abstract: In this paper we discuss the existence and non-existence of weak solutions to parametric fractional equations involving the square root of the Laplacian A1/2 in a smooth bounded domain OmegasubsetmathbbRn (ngeq2) and with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. Namely, our simple model is the following equation �egin{equation*} left{ �egin{array}{ll} A_{1/2}u=lambda f(u) & mbox{ in } Omega\ u=0 & mbox{ on } partialOmega. end{array} ight. end{equation*} The existence of at least two non-trivial Linfty-bounded weak solutions is established for large value of the parameter lambda requiring that the nonlinear term f is continuous, superlinear at zero and sublinear at infinity. Our approach is based on variational arguments and a suitable variant of the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension method.
