In this paper, we study singular solutions of linear problems with fractional Laplacian. First, we establish Bôcher type theorems on a punctured ball via distributional approach. Then, we develop a few interesting maximum principles on a punctured ball. Our distributional approach only requires the basic local L-1 integrability. We also introduce several simple and useful lemmas, which enable us to unify the treatments for both Laplacian and fractional Laplacian. These theorems, lemmas and the methods introduced here can be adapted and applied in other situations.
In this paper, we first establish Hopf's lemmas for parabolic fractional equations and parabolic fractional $p$-equations. Then we derive an asymptotic Hopf's lemma for antisymmetric solutions to parabolic fractional equations. We believe that these Hopf's lemmas will become powerful tools in obtaining qualitative properties of solutions for nonlocal parabolic equations.
In this paper, we present an approach to the fractional Dunkl Laplacian in a framework emerging from certain reflection symmetries in Euclidean spaces. Our main result is pointwise formulas, Bochner subordination, and an extension problem for the fractional Dunkl Laplacian as well
In this note, we study the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the regional fractional Laplacian $(-Δ)^s$ as $ s \to 0^+$. Our analysis leads to a study of the regional logarithmic Laplacian, which arises as a formal derivative of regional fractional Laplacians at $s = 0$.
In this paper we study the fractional Dirichlet p-sub-Laplacian in a Haar measurable set on homogeneous Lie groups. We prove fractional Sobolev and Hardy inequalities and we also present a Lyapunov-type inequality for the fractional p-sub-Laplacian. As a consequence of the Lyapunov-type inequality we show an estimate of the first eigenvalue in a quasi-ball for the Dirichlet fractional p-sub-Laplacian.
In this paper, we give some properties and remarks of the new fractional Sobolev spaces with variable exponents. We also study the eigenvalue problem involving the new fractional $p(\cdot)$-Laplacian.
In this work we analyze the behavior of the spectrum of the peridynamic fractional $p$-Laplacian, $(-Δ_p)_δ^s$, under the limit process $δ\to0^+$ or $δ\to+\infty$. We prove spectral convergence to the classical $p$-Laplacian under a suitable scaling as $δ\to0^+$ and to the fractional $p$-Laplacian as $δ\to+\infty$.
The main objective of this paper is to establish the convergence for the fractional $p$-Laplacian of nonnegative sequence of functions with $p>2$. Further, we show the blow-up phenomena for solutions to the extended Nirenberg problem modeled by fractional $p$-Laplacian with the prescribed negative functions.
In this paper, we consider a Lewy-Stampacchia-type inequality for the fractional Laplacian on a bounded domain in Euclidean space. Using this inequality, we can show the well-posedness of fractional-type anomalous unidirectional diffusion equations. This study is an extension of the work by Akagi-Kimura (2019) for the standard Laplacian. However, there exist several difficulties due to the nonlocal feature of the fractional Laplacian. We overcome those difficulties employing the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension of the fractional Laplacian.
This paper concerns with the study of the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to a family of fractional type problems on a bounded domain, satisfying homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The family of differential operators includes the fractional $p_n$-Laplacian when $p_n\to\infty$ as a particular case, tough it could be extended to a function of the Hölder quotient of order $s$, whose primitive is an Orlicz function satisfying appropriated growth conditions. The limit equation involves the Hölder infinity Laplacian.
We show a convergence result of the fractional Laplacian for sequences of nonnegative functions without uniform boundedness near infinity. As an application, we construct a sequence of solutions to the fractional Nirenberg problem that blows up in the region where the prescribed functions are negative. This is a different phenomenon from the classical Nirenberg problem.
In this paper, we study qualitative properties of the fractional $p$-Laplacian. Specifically, we establish a Hopf type lemma for positive weak super-solutions of the fractional $p-$Laplacian equation with Dirichlet condition. Moreover, an optimal condition is obtained to ensure $(-\triangle)_p^s u\in C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for smooth functions $u$.
We study various qualitative and quantitative (global) unique continuation properties for the fractional discrete Laplacian. We show that while the fractional Laplacian enjoys striking rigidity properties in the form of (global) unique continuation properties, the fractional discrete Laplacian does not enjoy these in general. While discretization thus counteracts the strong rigidity properties of the continuum fractional Laplacian, by discussing quantitative forms of unique continuation, we illustrate that these properties can be recovered if exponentially small (in the lattice size) correctio…
In this work we prove the non-degeneracy of the critical points of the Robin function for the Fractional Laplacian under symmetry and convexity assumptions on the domain $Ω$. This work extends to the fractional setting the results of M. Grossi concerning the classical Laplace operator.
We obtain some existence theorems for periodic solutions to several linear equations involving fractional Laplacian. We also prove that the lower bound of all periods for semilinear elliptic equations involving fractional Laplacian is not larger than some exact positive constant. Hamiltonian identity, Modica-type inequalities and an estimate of the energy for periodic solutions are also established.
We obtain fundamental imbeddings for the fractional Sobolev space with variable exponent that is a generalization of well-known fractional Sobolev spaces. As an application, we obtain a-priori bounds and multiplicity of solutions to some nonlinear elliptic problems involving the fractional $p(\cdot)$-Laplacian.
We show how nonlocal boundary conditions of Robin type can be encoded in the pointwise expression of the fractional operator. Notably, the fractional Laplacian of functions satisfying homogeneous nonlocal Neumann conditions can be expressed as a regional operator with a kernel having logarithmic behaviour at the boundary.
In this paper, we are interested to analyze a nonlocal nonlinear parabolic equation with fractional Laplacian. We show that there are no nontrivial global weak solutions using the test function method.
We show that the fractional Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^d$ fails to satisfy the Bakry-Émery curvature-dimension inequality $CD(κ,N)$ for all curvature bounds $κ\in \mathbb{R}$ and all finite dimensions $N>0$.
The short note here is to give a few heuristic arguments on the weird looking fractional Laplacian operator. This is certainly going to expand the vision of a reader who is looking to develope a taste for research in this direction.
We prove the attainability of the best constant in the fractional Hardy--Sobolev inequality with boundary singularity for the Spectral Dirichlet Laplacian. The main assumption is the average concavity of the boundary at the origin.
In this work we introduce volume constraint problems involving the nonlocal operator $(-Δ)_δ^{s}$, closely related to the fractional Laplacian $(-Δ)^{s}$, and depending upon a parameter $δ>0$ called horizon. We study the associated linear and spectral problems and the behavior of these volume constraint problems when $δ\to0^+$ and $δ\to+\infty$. Through these limit processes on $(-Δ)_δ^{s}$ we derive spectral convergence to the local Laplacian and to the fractional Laplacian as $δ\to 0^+$ and $δ\to +\infty$ respectively, as well as we prove the convergence of solutions of these problems to sol…
In this paper we consider a class of critical concave convex Ambrosetti-Prodi type problems for the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator. By applying the Linking Theorem and the Mountain Pass Theorem as well, the interaction of the nonlinearities with the first eigenvalue of fractional $p$-Laplacian will be used to prove existence and multiplicity of solutions.
We provide a detailed description of the relationships between the fractional Laplacian of order $2s\in(0,n)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the $\textit{$s$-polyharmonic}$ extension operator to the upper half space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_+$.
We establish an upper bound of the sum of the eigenvalues for the Dirichlet problem of the fractional Laplacian. Our result is obtained by a subtle computation of the Rayleigh quotient for specific functions.
This paper is concerned with the study of a nonlinear problems involving the fractional p(x)-Laplacian operator. By means of the Berkovits degree theory, we prove the existence of nontrivial weak solutions for this problem. The appropriate functional framework for this problems is the fractional Sobolev spaces with variable exponent.
By virtue of $Γ-$convergence arguments, we investigate the stability of variational eigenvalues associated with a given topological index for the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator, in the singular limit as the nonlocal operator converges to the $p$-Laplacian. We also obtain the convergence of the corresponding normalized eigenfunctions in a suitable fractional norm.
We consider an optimal control problem governed by a class of boundary value problem with the spectral Dirichlet fractional Laplacian. Some sufficient condition for the existence of optimal processes is stated. The proof of the main result relies on variational structure of the problem. To show that boundary value problem with the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian has a weak solution we employ the renowned Ky Fan Theorem.
