A Global multiplicity result for a very singular critical nonlocal equation

TLDR: In this paper, the global multiplicity result for the nonlocal singular problem (P$_\lambda) was shown and it was shown that any weak solution to this problem is in (C^\alpha(\mathbb R^n) with α = α(s,q) in (0, 1) where α is a constant.

Abstract: In this article we show the global multiplicity result for the following nonlocal singular problem \begin{equation*} (-\Delta)^s u = u^{-q} + \lambda u^{{2^*_s}-1}, \quad u> 0 \quad \text{in } \Omega,\quad u = 0 \quad \mbox{in } \mathbb R^n \setminus\Omega, \tag{ P$_\lambda$} \end{equation*} where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary $\partial \Omega$, $n > 2s$, $ s \in (0,1)$, $ \lambda > 0$, $q> 0$ satisfies $q(2s-1) \Lambda$, where $\Lambda> 0$ is appropriately chosen. We also prove a result of independent interest that any weak solution to (P$_\lambda)$ is in $C^\alpha(\mathbb R^n)$ with $\alpha=\alpha(s,q)\in (0,1)$. The asymptotic behaviour of weak solutions reveals that this result is sharp.
