We deal with symmetry properties for solutions of nonlocal equations of the type $(-\Delta)^s v= f(v)\qquad {in $\R^n$,}$ where $s \in (0,1)$ and the operator $(-\Delta)^s$ is the so-called fractional Laplacian. The study of this nonlocal…

In this paper we are concerned with the construction of periodic solutions of the nonlocal problem $(-\Delta)^s u= f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}$, where $(-\Delta)^s$ stands for the $s$-Laplacian, $s\in (0,1)$. We introduce a suitable framework…
