Here Ω ⊆ Rᴺ a bounded domain with C^(1,1) boundary, 2 ≤ p < N , s ∈ (0, 1) and f superlineal and subcritical. We prove that if λ > 0 is chosen sufficiently small the associated Energy Functional to the problem has a mountain pass structure and, therefore, it has a critical point u_λ, which is a weak solution.
