In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of ground states to the following fractional nonlinear elliptic equation with harmonic potential, (-Δ)s u+ (ω+|x|2) u=|u|p-2u in \Rn, where n ≥ 1, 0-λ1,s, 20 is the lowest eigenvalue of (-Δ)s + |x|2. The fractional Laplacian (-Δ)s is characterized as F((-Δ)su)(ξ)=|ξ|2s F(u)(ξ) for ξ∈ \Rn, where F denotes the Fourier transform. This solves an open question in \citeSS concerning the uniqueness of ground states.
