We study the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian with drift, $\min\left\{(-\Delta)^s u + b \cdot \nabla u,\,u -\varphi\right\} = 0$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in the critical regime $s = \frac{1}{2}$. Our main result establishes the…

An improvement to a Berezin-Li-Yau type inequality for $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}|_{\Omega},$ the fractional Laplacian operators restriced to a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ for $\alpha\in(0,2],$ $d\ge 2,$ is proved.

A lower bound estimate \lambda_2 - \lambda_1 \ge c \lambda_1^{-d / \alpha} (\diam D)^{-d - \alpha} for the spectral gap of the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian on arbitrary bounded domain D is proved. This follows from a variational formula…

In this paper we are concerned with a two phase boundary obstacle-type problem for the bi-Laplace operator in the upper unit ball. The problem arises in connection with unilateral phenomena for flat elastic plates. It can also be seen as an…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in a $C^1$ domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, which vanishes on an open subset of the boundary. In this note we study its critical set $\{x \in \overline{D}: \nabla u(x) = 0 \}$. When $D$ is a $C^{1,\alpha}$…

The fractional Laplacian can be obtained as a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map via an extension problem to the upper half space. In this paper we prove the same type of characterization for the fractional powers of second order partial differential…

In this paper we consider the Dirichlet form on the half-space $\mathbb{R}^d_+$ defined by the jump kernel $J(x,y)=|x-y|^{-d-\alpha}\mathcal{B}(x,y)$, where $\mathcal{B}(x,y)$ can be degenerate at the boundary. Unlike our previous works…
