AbstractWe study a nonlocal parametric problem driven by the fractional Laplacian operator combined with a Kirchhoff-type coefficient and involving a critical nonlinearity term in the Sobolev embedding sense. Our approach is of variational and topological nature. The obtained results can be viewed as a nontrivial extension to the nonlocal setting of some recent contributions already present in the literature.

AbstractWe study the existence of positive solutions for fractional elliptic equations of the type (-Δ)1/2u = h(u), u > 0 in (-1,1), u = 0 in ℝ∖(-1,1) where h is a real valued function that behaves like eu2 as u → ∞ . Here (-Δ)1/2 is the fractional Laplacian operator. We show the existence of mountain-pass solution when the nonlinearity is superlinear near t = 0. In case h is concave near t = 0, we show the existence of multiple solutions for suitable range of λ by analyzing the fibering maps and the corresponding Nehari manifold.

The fractional Laplacian, also known as the Riesz fractional derivative operator, describes an unusual diffusion process due to random displacements executed by jumpers that are able to walk to neighbouring or nearby sites, as well as perform excursions to remote sites by way of Lévy flights. The fractional Laplacian has many applications in the boundary behaviours of solutions to differential equations. The goal of this paper is to investigate the half-order Laplacian operator ( − Δ ) 1 2 in the distributional sense, based on the generalized convolution and Temple’s delta sequence. Several interesting examples related to the fractional Laplacian operator of order 1 / 2 are presented with applications to differential equations, some of which cannot be obtained in the classical sense by the standard definition of the fractional Laplacian via Fourier transform.

AbstractBy means of variational methods we investigate existence, nonexistence as well as regularity of weak solutions for a system of nonlocal equations involving the fractional laplacian operator and with nonlinearity reaching the critical growth and interacting, in a suitable sense, with the spectrum of the operator.

In this paper, we study a fractional type degenerate heat equation posed in bounded domains. We show the existence of solutions for measurable and bounded non-negative initial data, and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. The nonlocal diffusion effect relies on an inverse of the [Formula: see text]-fractional Laplacian operator, and the solvability is proved for any [Formula: see text].

AbstractWe study the following fractional Yamabe-type equation:\left\{\begin{aligned} \displaystyle A_{s}u&\displaystyle=u^{\frac{n+2s}{n-2s}% },\\ \displaystyle u&\displaystyle>0&&\displaystyle\text{in }\Omega,\\ \displaystyle u&\displaystyle=0&&\displaystyle\text{on }\partial\Omega,\end{% aligned}\right.Here Ω is a regular bounded domain of{\mathbb{R}^{n}},{n\geq 2}, and{A_{s}},{s\in(0,1)}, represents the fractional Laplacian operator{(-\Delta)^{s}}in Ω with zero Dirichlet boundary condition. We investigate the effect of the topology of Ω on the existence of solutions. Our result can be seen as the fractional counterpart of the Bahri–Coron theorem [3].

This paper is devoted to investigate the symmetry and monotonicity properties for positive solutions of fractional Laplacian equations. Especially, we consider the following fractional Laplacian equation with homogeneous Dirichlet condition: [Formula: see text] Here [Formula: see text] is a domain (bounded or unbounded) in [Formula: see text] which is convex in [Formula: see text]-direction. [Formula: see text] is the nonlocal fractional Laplacian operator which is defined as [Formula: see text] Under various conditions on [Formula: see text] and on a solution [Formula: see text] it is shown that [Formula: see text] is strictly increasing in [Formula: see text] in the left half of [Formula: see text], or in [Formula: see text]. Symmetry (in [Formula: see text]) of some solutions is proved.
