In this paper, we study the existence of bound state for the following fractional Schrödinger equation
where
α(−Δ) with
α ∈ (0, 1) is the fractional Laplace operator defined as a pseudo-differential operator with the symbol |
ξ|
2α,
V(
x) is a positive potential function and the nonlinearity
f is saturable, that is,
f(u)/u→l∈(0,+∞) as
|u|→+∞. By using a variant version of
Mountain Pass Theorem, we prove that there exists a bound state and ground state of (P) when
V and
f satisfy suitable assumptions.
