Abstract: We study the following nonlinear and nonlocal elliptic equation in~Rn (-Delta)^s u = epsilon,h,u^q + u^p {mbox{ in }}R^n, where~sin(0,1), n>2s, epsilon>0 is a small parameter, p=fracn+2sn2s, qin(0,1), and~hinL1(Rn)capLinfty(Rn). The problem has a variational structure, and this allows us to find a positive solution by looking at critical points of a suitable energy functional. In particular, in this paper, we find a local minimum and a mountain pass solution of this functional. One of the crucial ingredient is a Concentration-Compactness principle. Some difficulties arise from the nonlocal structure of the problem and from the fact that we deal with an equation in the whole of~Rn (and this causes lack of compactness of some embeddings). We overcome these difficulties by looking at an equivalent extended problem.
