A fractional p-Laplacian problem with multiple critical Hardy-Sobolev nonlinearities

Abstract

In this work, we study the existence of weak solution to the following quasi linear elliptic problem involving the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator, a Hardy potential and multiple critical Sobolev nonlinearities with singularities, \begin{align*} (-\Delta_p)^su - \mu \dfrac{\vert u \vert^{p-2} u}{\vert x \vert^{ps}} = \dfrac{\vert u\vert^{p^*_s(\beta)-2}u}{\vert x \vert^{\beta}} + \dfrac{\vert u\vert^{p^*_s(\alpha )-2} u}{\vert x \vert^\alpha }, \end{align*} where $ x \in \mathbb{R}^N$, $u\in D^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$, $0 sp$, $0<\alpha 0$. To prove the existence of solution to the problem we have to formulate a refined version of the concentration-compactness principle and, as an independent result, we have to show that the extremals for the Sobolev inequality are attained.
