We exhibit existence of non-trivial solutions of some fractional linear Schrödinger equations which are radial and vanish at the origin. This is in stark contrast to what happens in the local case. We also prove analogous results in the presence of a Hardy potential.
We prove Hardy's inequality for the fractional powers of the generalized sublaplacian and the fractional powers of the Grushin operator. We also find an integral representation and a ground state representation for the fractional powers of generalized sublaplacian.
In this paper we study existence and nonexistence of nonnegative distributional solutions for a class of semilinear fractional elliptic equations involving the Hardy potential.
We investigate the existence of extremals for Hardy-Sobolev inequalities involving the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian of order s, 0<s<1, on half-spaces.
Our main aim is to study Green function for the fractional Hardy operator $P:=(-Δ)^s -\fracθ{|x|^{2s}}$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$, where $0<θ<Λ_{N,s}$ and $Λ_{N,s}$ is the best constant in the fractional Hardy inequality. Using Green function, we also show that the integral representation of the weak solution holds.
Our aim in this article is to study semilinear elliptic equations involving a fractional Hardy operator, an absorption and a Radon source in a weighted distributional sense. We show various scenarios, produced by the combined effect of the fractional Hardy potential, the growth of the absorption term and the concentration of the measure, in which existence and uniqueness results holds.
A classification of local asymptotic profiles and strong unique continuation properties are established for a class of fractional heat equations with a Hardy-type potential, via an Almgren-Poon monotonicity formula combined with a blow-up analysis.
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.
We prove the coincidence of the Sobolev and Hardy constants relative to the "Dirichlet" and "Navier" fractional Laplacians of any real order $m\in(0,\frac{n}{2})$ over bounded domains in $\mathbb R^n$.
The present work is concerned with existence of positive solutions for a class of fractional equation involving a Kirchhoff term and singular potential.
We calculate the regional fractional Laplacian on some power function on an interval. As an application, we prove Hardy inequality with an extra term for the fractional Laplacian on the interval with the optimal constant. As a result, we obtain the fractional Hardy inequality with best constant and an extra lower-order term for general domains, following the method developed by M. Loss and C. Sloane [arXiv:0907.3054v1 [math.AP]]
We study linear and non-linear equations related to the fractional Hardy--Sobolev inequality. We prove nondegeneracy of ground state solutions to the basic equation and investigate existence and qualitative properties, including symmetry of solutions to some perturbed equations.
The general stability problem of truncations for a family of functions concentrating mass at the origin is described and a concrete example in the framework of entire optimizers for the fractional Hardy-Sobolev inequality is given. In this short note we point out some quantitative stability estimates, useful in dealing with critical $p-q$ fractional equations.
Local and global properties of minimal solutions for the heat equation generated by the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian negatively perturbed by Hardy's potentials on open subsets of $\R^d$ are analyzed. As a byproduct we obtain instantaneous blow-up of nonnegative solutions in the supercritical case.
This paper deals with a coupled Hartree system with Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev critical exponent \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -Δu+(V_1(x)+λ_1)u=μ_1(|x|^{-4}*u^{2})u+β(|x|^{-4}*v^{2})u, \ \ &x\in R^N, -Δv+(V_2(x)+λ_2)v=μ_2(|x|^{-4}*v^{2})v+β(|x|^{-4}*u^{2})v, \ \ &x\in R^N, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $N\geq 5$, $λ_1$, $λ_2\geq 0$ with $λ_1+λ_2\neq 0$, $V_1(x), V_{2}(x)\in L^{\frac{N}{2}}(R^N)$ are nonnegative functions and $μ_1$, $μ_2$, $β$ are positive constants. Such system arises from mathematical models in Bose-Einstein condensates theory and nonlinear optics. By variational methods…
In this paper, we study the existence of three solutions for a Kirchhoff equation involving the nonlocal fractional p-Laplacian considering Sobolev and Hardy nonlinearities at subcritical and critical growths. The proof is based on Mountain Pass Theorem, Ekeland's variational principle and constrained minimization in Nehari sets.
We obtain existence, multiplicity, and bifurcation results for the Brezis-Nirenberg problem for the fractional $p$\nobreakdash-Laplacian operator, involving critical Hardy-Sobolev exponents. Our results are mainly extend results in the literature for $α=0$. In the absence of an explicit formula for a minimizer in the fractional Hardy-Sobolev inequality $α\not= 0$, we get around this difficulty by working with certain asymptotic estimates for minimizers recently obtained in \cite{MM}.
The paper deals with existence and multiplicity of positive solutions to nonlocal equations with critical Hrardy-Sobolev nonlinearities and external terms. We establish the profile decomposition of the Palais-Smale sequences associated with the functional and existence of at least two positive solutions to the equation.
In this work, we are interested on the study of the Fujita exponent and the meaning of the blow-up for the Fractional Cauchy problem with the Hardy potential, namely, \begin{equation*} u_t+(-Δ)^s u=λ\dfrac{u}{|x|^{2s}}+u^{p}\inn\ren,\\ u(x,0)=u_{0}(x)\inn\ren, \end{equation*} where $N> 2s$, $0<s<1$, $(-Δ)^s$ is the fractional laplacian of order $2s$, $ł>0$, $u_0\ge 0$, and $1<p<p_{+}(s,λ)$, where $p_{+}(λ, s)$ is the critical existence power found in \cite{BMP} and \cite{AMPP}.
In this paper, we study the following singular nonlinear elliptic problem \begin{equation}\label{eq:1} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \displaystyle (-Δ)^{\frac α2} u=λ|u|^{r-2}u+μ\frac{|u|^{q-2}u}{|x|^{s}}\quad &{\rm in }\quad Ω, \\ \\ u=0 &{\rm on }\quad \partialΩ, \end{array} \right. \end{equation} where $Ω$ is a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb R^N$ with $0\in Ω$, $λ,μ>0,0<s\leqα$, $(-Δ)^{\frac α2}$ is the fractional Laplacian operator with $0<α<2$. We establish existence results of problem \eqref{eq:1} for subcritical, Sobolev critical and Hardy-Sobolev critical cases.
In this paper, we give a full classification of the nonexistence of positive weak solutions to the semilinear elliptic inequality involving the fractional Hardy potential in punctured and in exterior domains. Our methods are self-contained and new. The main ideas and key ingredients will be discussed in the next section after Theorem 1.1 for punctured domains, and after Theorem 1.4 for exterior domains. We will also explain why all the previous methods and techniques do not apply to our general setting. Let us give here a foretaste of our line of attack: Based on the imbalance between the Hard…
By means of variational methods we establish existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of nonlinear nonlocal problems involving the fractional p-Laplacian and a combined Sobolev and Hardy nonlinearity at subcritical and critical growth.
In this paper, we deal with a fractional elliptic equation with critical Sobolev nonlinearity and Hardy term $$ (-Δ)^α u-μ\frac{u}{|x|^{2α}}+a(x) u=|u|^{2^*-2}u+k(x)|u|^{q-2}u$$ $$ u\,\in\,H^α({\mathbb R}^N),$$ where $2<q< 2^*$, $0<α<1$, $N>4α$, $2^*=2N/(N-2α)$ is the critical Sobolev exponent, $a(x),k(x)\in C({\mathbb R}^N)$. Through a compactness analysis of the functional associated to $(*)$, we obtain the existence of positive solutions for $(*)$ under certain assumptions on $a(x),k(x)$.
In this work, we obtain an existence of nontrivial solutions to a minimization problem involving a fractional Hardy-Sobolev type inequality in the case of inner singularity. Precisely, for $λ>0$ we analyze the attainability of the optimal constant $$ μ_{α, λ}(Ω):=\inf\left\{ [u]^2_{s,Ω}+λ\int_Ω|u|^2 \, dx \colon u\in H^s(Ω), \, \int_Ω \frac{|u(x)|^{2_{s,α}}}{|x|^α} \, dx=1 \right\}, $$ where $0<s<1, n>4s, 0<α<2s$, $2_{s,α}=\frac{2(n-α)}{n-2s}$, and $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded domain such that $0\in Ω$.
In this paper, we consider the fractional elliptic equation \begin{align*} \left\{\begin{aligned} &(-Δ)^s u-μ\frac{u}{|x|^{2s}} = \frac{|u|^{2_s^\ast (α)-2}u}{|x|^α} + f(x,u), && \mbox{in} \ Ω,\\ &u=0, && \mbox{in} \ \mathbb{R}^{n}\backslash \ Ω, \end{aligned}\right. \end{align*} where $Ω\subset R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain, $0\inΩ$, $0<s<1$, $0<α<2s<n$, $2_{s}^{\ast}(α)=\frac{2(n-α)}{n-2s}$. Under some assumptions on $μ$ and $f$, we obtain the existence of nonnegative solutions.
The purpose of this paper is to study and classify singular solutions of the Poisson problem $$ %\begin{equation}\label{eq 0.1} \left \{ \begin{aligned} {\mathcal L}^s_μu = f \quad\ {\rm in}\ \, Ω\setminus \{0\},\\ u =0 \quad\ {\rm in}\ \, {\mathbb R}^N \setminus Ω %\\ %\liminf_{x \to 0}\:|u(x)| /Φ_μ(x) = k. \end{aligned} \right. $$ for the fractional Hardy operator ${\mathcal L}_μ^s u= (-Δ)^s u +\fracμ{|x|^{2s}}u$ in a bounded domain $Ω\subset {\mathbb R}^N$ ($N \ge 2$) containing the origin. Here $(-Δ)^s$, $s\in(0,1)$, is the fractional Laplacian of order $2s$, and $μ\ge μ_0$, where $μ_0 = -…
We consider linear and non-linear boundary value problems associated to the fractional Hardy-Schrödinger operator $ L_{γ,α}: = ({-}{ Δ})^{\fracα{2}}- \fracγ{|x|^α}$ on domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ containing the singularity $0$, where $0<α<2$ and $ 0 \le γ< γ_H(α)$, the latter being the best constant in the fractional Hardy inequality on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We tackle the existence of least-energy solutions for the borderline boundary value problem $(L_{γ,α}-λI)u= {\frac{u^{2^\star_α(s)-1}}{|x|^s}}$ on $Ω$, where $0\leq s <α<n$ and $ 2^\star_α(s)={\frac{2(n-s)}{n-α}}$ is the critical fractional Sobole…
We prove fractional Sobolev-Poincaré inequalities, capacitary versions of fractional Poincaré inequalities, and pointwise and localized fractional Hardy inequalities in a metric space equipped with a doubling measure. Our results generalize and extend earlier work where such inequalities have been considered in the Euclidean spaces or in the non-fractional setting in metric spaces. The results concerning pointwise and localized variants of fractional Hardy inequalities are new even in the Euclidean case.
In this paper, we consider the following problem: $$ (-Δ)^{s} u -\frac{ζu}{|x|^{2s}} = \sum_{i=1}^{k} \frac{|u|^{2^{*}_{s,θ_{i}}-2}u} {|x|^{θ_{i}}} , \mathrm{~in~} \mathbb{R}^{N}, $$ where $N\geqslant3$, $s\in(0,1)$, $ζ\in \left[ 0,4^{s}\frac{Γ(\frac{N+2s}{4})}{Γ(\frac{N-2s}{4})} \right)$, $2^{*}_{s,θ_{i}}=\frac{2(N-θ_{i})}{N-2s}$ are the critical Hardy--Sobolev exponents, the parameters $θ_{i}$ satisfy a suitable assumption. By using Morrey space, refinement of Hardy--Sobolev inequality and variational method, we establish the existence of nonnegative solution. Our result generalizes the resu…
In this paper, we are concerned with the following type of elliptic problems: $$ (-Δ)^α u+a(x) u=\frac{|u|^{2^*_{s}-2}u}{|x|^s}+k(x)|u|^{q-2}u, u\,\in\,H^α({\mathbb R}^N), $$ where $2<q< 2^*$, $0<α<1$, $0<s<2α$, $2^*_{s}=2(N-s)/(N-2α)$ is the critical Sobolev-Hardy exponent, $2^*=2N/(N-2α)$ is the critical Sobolev exponent, $a(x),k(x)\in C({\mathbb R}^N)$. Through a compactness analysis of the functional associated to the problem, we obtain the existence of positive solutions under certain assumptions on $a(x),k(x)$.
We provide sufficient conditions for boundary Hardy inequality to hold in bounded Lipschitz domains, complement of a point (the so-called point Hardy inequality), domain above the graph of a Lipschitz function, the complement of a bounded Lipschitz domain in fractional Orlicz-Sobolev setting. As a consequence, we get sufficient conditions for regional fractional Orlicz Poincaré inequality in bounded Lipschitz domains. Necessary conditions for fractional Orlicz Hardy and regional fractional Orlicz Poincaré inequalities are also given for bounded Lipschitz domains. Various sufficient conditions …
We determine the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces on half-spaces. Our proof relies on a non-linear and non-local version of the ground state representation.
In this article, we study the eigenvalue of nonlinear $p-$fractional Hardy operator \begin{align*} (-Δ)_p^αu - μ\frac{|u|^{p-2}u}{|x|^{pα}} = λV(x) |u|^{p-2}u \; \text{in}\; Ω, \quad u = 0 \; \mbox{in}\; \mathbb{R}^n \setminusΩ, \end{align*} where $n>pα$, $p\geq2$, $α\in(0,1)$, $0\leq μ<C_{n,α,p}$ and $Ω$ is a domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with Lipschitz boundary containing $0$. In particular, $Ω=\mathbb{R}^n$ is admitted. The weight function $V$ may change sign and may have singular points. We also show that the least positive eigenvalue is simple and it is unique associated to a non-negative eige…
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.
