Existence of positive ground state solutions to a nonlinear fractional Schrödinger system with linear couplings

In this paper, we investigate a nonlinear fractional Schrodinger system with linear couplings as follows: $$ \textstyle\begin{cases} (-\Delta )^{\alpha }u+(1+a(x))u=F_{u}(u,v)+\lambda v,& \text{in } \mathbb{R}^{3}, \\ (-\Delta )^{\alpha }v+(1+b(x))v=F_{v}(u,v)+\lambda u,& \text{in } \mathbb{R}^{3}, \\ u,v\in H^{\alpha }(\mathbb{R}^{3}), \end{cases} $$ where $(-\Delta )^{\alpha }, \alpha \in (0,1)$, denotes the fractional Laplacian and $\lambda >0$ is the coupling parameter. Under some assumptions, we prove the existence of positive ground state solutions to the above system with the help of the method of Nehari manifold and concentration compactness lemma.
