In this paper, we investigate the following fractional elliptic system (−) α/2 u(x) = f (x)v q (x), x ∈ R n , (−) β/2 v(x) = h(x)u p (x), x ∈ R n , where 1 ≤ p, q < ∞, 0 < α, β < 2, f (x) and h(x) satisfy suitable conditions. Applying the method of moving planes, we prove monotonicity without any decay assumption at infinity. Furthermore, if α = β, a Liouville theorem is established.
