In the paper, we study a class of semilinear fractional semilinear elliptic equations involving concave-convex nonlinearities:
$ \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u+V_{\lambda }\left( x\right) u = f\left( x\right) \left\vert u\right\vert ^{q-2}u+g\left( x\right) \left\vert u\right\vert ^{p-2}u & \text{in }\mathbb{R}^{N}, \\ u\in H^{\alpha}(\mathbb{R}^{N}), & \end{array}\right. \end{equation*} $
where
$ \alpha\in (0,1] $
,
$ 1<q<2<p<2_{\alpha}^{\ast }\ \left( 2_{\alpha}^{\ast } = \frac{2N}{N-2\alpha}\text{ for}\ N> 2\alpha\right), $
 the potential
$ V_{\lambda }(x) = \lambda a(x)-b(x) $
 and the parameter
$ \lambda >0. $
 Under some suitable assumptions on
$ a,b $
 and the weight functions
$ f,g $
, we obtain the existence and multiplicity of non-trivial (positive) solutions for
$ \lambda $
 large enough. An interesting phenomenon is that we do not need the condition that weight functions
$ f, g $
 are integrable or bounded on whole space
$ \mathbb{R}^{N}. $
Keywords: Semilinear fractional elliptic equations, concave-convex nonlinearities, variational methods, steep potential, singular weight functions.
