A pointwise inequality for fractional laplacians

Analysis of PDEs 2015-02-06 v1

Abstract

The fractional laplacian is an operator appearing in several evolution models where diffusion coming from a L\'evy process is present but also in the analysis of fluid interphases. We provide an extension of a pointwise inequality that plays a r\^ole in their study. We begin recalling two scenarios where it has been used. After stating the results, for fractional Laplace-Beltrami and Dirichlet-Neumann operators, we provide an sketch of their proofs, unravelling the underlying principle to such inequalities.
