We define and study some properties of the fractional powers of the discrete Laplacian $$(-\Delta_h)^s,\quad\hbox{on}~\mathbb{Z}_h = h\mathbb{Z},$$ for $h>0$ and $0<s<1$. A comparison between our fractional discrete Laplacian and the…

We consider a nonlinear pseudo-differential equation driven by the fractional $p$-Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s_p$ with $s\in(0,1)$ and $p\ge 2$ (degenerate case), under Dirichlet type conditions in a smooth domain $\Omega$. We prove that local…

The fractional Navier-Stokes equations on a periodic domain $[0,\,L]^{3}$ differ from their conventional counterpart by the replacement of the $-\nu\Delta\mathbf{u}$ Laplacian term by $\nu_{s}A^{s}\mathbf{u}$, where $A= - \Delta$ is the…

We prove a unique continuation property for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ when $s \in (-n/2,\infty)\setminus \mathbb{Z}$. In addition, we study Poincar\'e-type inequalities for the operator $(-\Delta)^s$ when $s\geq 0$. We apply…

This paper deals with the following class of nonlocal Schr\"odinger equations $$ \displaystyle (-\Delta)^s u + u = |u|^{p-1}u \ \ \text{in} \ \mathbb{R}^N, \quad \text{for} \ s\in (0,1). $$ We prove existence and symmetry results for the…

For $\alpha \in (1,2)$ we consider the equation $\partial_t u = \Delta^{\alpha/2} u - r b \cdot \nabla u$, where $b$ is a divergence free singular vector field not necessarily belonging to the Kato class. We show that for sufficiently small…
