Abstract

Given a bounded (ϵ,δ)(\epsilon,\delta)-domain ΩR ⁣N\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R\!}^N (N2N\geq2) whose boundary Γ:=Ω\Gamma:=\partial\Omega is a dd-set for d(Np,N)d\in(N-p,N), we investigate a generalized quasi-linear elliptic boundary value problem governed by the regional fractional pp-Laplacian (Δ)p,Ωs(-\Delta)^s_{_{p,\Omega}} in Ω\Omega, and generalized fractional Wentzell boundary conditions of type Cp,sNp(1s)u+βuq2u+Θqηu=g\indent\indent\indentonΓ,C'_{p,s}\mathcal{N}^{p'(1-s)}u+\beta|u|^{q-2} u+\Theta^{\eta}_qu\,=\,g\indent\indent\indent\textrm{on}\,\,\Gamma, where Θqη\Theta^{\eta}_q stands as a nonlocal fractional-type qq-operator on Γ\Gamma (also refered as a Besov qq-map), Cp,sNp(1s)C'_{p,s}\mathcal{N}^{p'(1-s)} denotes the fractional pp-normal derivative operator in Γ\Gamma, and p,qp,\,q are two growth exponents acting on the interior and boundary, respectively (which are in general unrelated between each other). We first show that this model equation admits a unique weak solution, which is globally bounded in Ω\overline{\Omega}. Furthermore, given two distinct weak solution related to this boundary value problem with different data values, we establish a priori LL^{\infty}-estimates for the difference of weak solutions with upper bound depending in the differences of the respective interior and boundary data functions. Additionally, a Weak Comparison Principle is derived, and we conclude by establishing a sort of nonlinear Fredholm Alternative related to this generalized elliptic fractional model equation.
