abstract = {This paper investigates the existence of positive solutions for a nonhomogeneous nonlinear integral equation of the form         u          p      −      1        (  x  )  =      ∫          Ω                  u      (      y      )                      |            x      −      y                        |                          n          −          α                      d  y  +      ∫          Ω                  f      (      y      )                      |            x      −      y                        |                          n          −          α                      d  y  ,    x  ∈            Ω      ¯      where              2      n              n      +      α        ≤  p  &lt;  2  ,    1  &lt;  α  &lt;  n,    n  &gt;  2  ,     Ω is a bounded domain in              R              n      . We show that under suitable assumptions on    f  , the integral equation admits a positive solution in        L                            2          n                          n          +          α                          (    Ω    )  . Our method combines the Ekeland variational principle, a blow-up argument and a rescaling argument which allows us to overcome the difficulties arising from the lack of Brezis-Lieb lemma in        L                            2          n                          n          +          α                      (  Ω  ).}
