The weakly coupled fractional one-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operator   with index $\bf 1<\alpha \leq 2$
  We study fundamental properties of the fractional, one-dimensional Weyl operator $\hat{\mathcal{P}}^{\alpha}$ densely defined on the Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}=L^2({\mathbb R},dx)$ and determine the asymptotic behaviour of both the free Green's function and its variation with respect to energy for bound states. In the sequel we specify the Birman-Schwinger representation for the Schr\"{o}dinger operator $K_{\alpha}\hat{\mathcal{P}}^{\alpha}-g|\hat{V}|$ and extract the finite-rank portion which is essential for the asymptotic expansion of the ground state. Finally, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for there to be a bound state for small coupling constant $g$.
