The obstacle problem for nonlinear integro-differential operators

Analysis of PDEs 2016-04-18 v1

Abstract

We investigate the obstacle problem for a class of nonlinear equations driven by nonlocal, possibly degenerate, integro-differential operators, whose model is the fractional pp-Laplacian operator with measurable coefficients. Amongst other results, we will prove both the existence and uniqueness of the solutions to the obstacle problem, and that these solutions inherit regularity properties, such as boundedness, continuity and H\"older continuity (up to the boundary), from the obstacle.
