Compact embeddings for weighted fractional Sobolev spaces and applications to Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equations

The aim of this work is to prove a compact embedding for a weighted fractional Sobolev spaces. As an application, we use this embedding to prove, via variational methods, the existence of solutions for the following Schr\"odinger equation $$ (-\Delta)^su + V(|x|)u = K(|x|)f(u), \quad \text{ in } \mathbb{ R}^N, $$ where the two measurable functions $K > 0$ and $V \geq 0$ could vanish at infinity.
