By using a suitable topological argument based on cohomological linking and by exploiting a Trudinger-Moser inequality in fractional spaces recently obtained, we prove existence of multiple solutions for a problem involving the nonlinear fractional laplacian and a related critical exponential nonlinearity. This extends the literature for the $N$-Laplacian operator.

Keywords: Fractional Trudinger-Moser embedding, exponential nonlinearity, existence of solutions.
