Abstract: We consider the steady fractional Schr"odinger equation $Lu+Vu=f$ posed on a bounded domain $Omega$; $L$ is an integro-differential operator, like the usual versions of the fractional Laplacian $(-Delta{)}^s$; $Vge0$ is a potential with possible singularities, and the right-hand side are integrable functions or Radon measures. We reformulate the problem via the Green function of $(-Delta{)}^s$ and prove well-posedness for functions as data.If $V$ is bounded or mildly singular a unique solution of $(-Delta{)}^{s}u+Vu=mu$ exists for every Borel measure $mu$. On the other hand, when $V$ is allowed to be more singular, but only on a finite set of points, a solution of $(-Delta{)}^{s}u+Vu=delt{a}_x$, where $delt{a}_x$ is the Dirac measure at $x$, exists if and only if $h(y)=V(y)|x-y{|}^{-(n+2s)}$ is integrable on some small ball around $x$. We prove that the set $Z=xinOmega:extrmnosolutionof(-Delta{)}^{s}u+Vu=delt{a}_{x}extrmexists$ is relevant in the following sense: a solution of $(-Delta{)}^{s}u+Vu=mu$ exists if and only if $|mu|(Z)=0$. Furthermore, $Z$ is the set points where the strong maximum principle fails, in the sense that for any bounded $f$ the solution of $(-Delta{)}^{s}u+Vu=f$ vanishes on $Z$.
