We define the fractional powers $L^s=(-a^{ij}(x)\partial_{ij})^s$, $0 < s < 1$, of nondivergence form elliptic operators $L=-a^{ij}(x)\partial_{ij}$ in bounded domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, under minimal regularity assumptions on the…

We prove and collect numerous explicit and computable results for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s f(x)$ with $s>0$ as well as its whole space inverse, the Riesz potential, $(-\Delta)^{-s}f(x)$ with $s\in\left(0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$.…

We develop the regularity theory for solutions to space-time nonlocal equations driven by fractional powers of the heat operator $$(\partial_t-\Delta)^su(t,x)=f(t,x),\quad\hbox{for}~0<s<1.$$ This nonlocal equation of order $s$ in time and…

In this paper, we investigate eigenvalues of Laplacian on a bounded domain in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and obtain a sharper lower bound for the sum of its eigenvalues, which gives an improvement of results due to A. D. Melas [15].…

We study the eigenvalue problem for the $g-$Laplacian operator in fractional order Orlicz-Sobolev spaces, where $g=G'$ and neither $G$ nor its conjugated function satisfy the $\Delta_2$ condition. Our main result is the existence of a…

We make the split of the integral fractional Laplacian as $(-\Delta)^s u=(-\Delta)(-\Delta)^{s-1}u$, where $s\in(0,\frac{1}{2})\cup(\frac{1}{2},1)$. Based on this splitting, we respectively discretize the one- and two-dimensional integral…
