In this paper we consider classical solutions $u$ of the semilinear fractional problem $(-\Delta)^s u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+$ with $u=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^N \setminus \mathbb{R}^N_+$, where $(-\Delta)^s$, $0<s<1$, stands for the fractional…
This paper is concerned with the following fractional Schr\"odinger equation \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^{s} u+u= k(x)f(u)+h(x) \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^{N}\\ u\in H^{s}(\R^{N}), \, u>0 \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^{N},…
This paper deals with solutions of semilinear elliptic equations of the type \[ \left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u = f(|x|, u) \qquad & \text{ in } \Omega, \\ u= 0 & \text{ on } \partial \Omega, \end{array} \right. \] where $\Omega$ is a…
The aim of this paper is to establish properties of the solutions to the $\alpha$-harmonic equations: $\Delta_{\alpha}(f(z))=\partial{z}[(1-{|{z}|}^{2})^{-\alpha} \overline{\partial}{z}f](z)=g(z)$, where…
In this paper the existence of solutions, $(\lambda,u)$, of the problem $$-\Delta u=\lambda u -a(x)|u|^{p-1}u \quad \hbox{in }\Omega, \qquad u=0 \quad \hbox{on}\;\;\partial\Omega,$$ is explored for $0 < p < 1$. When $p>1$, it is known that…
We show that we can approximate every function $f\in C^{k}(\bar{B_1})$ with a $s$-harmonic function in $B_1$ that vanishes outside a compact set. That is, $s$-harmonic functions are dense in $C^{k}_{\rm{loc}}$. This result is clearly in…
The aim of this paper is to study radial symmetry and monotonicity properties for positive solution of elliptic equations involving the fractional Laplacian. We first consider the semi-linear Dirichlet problem (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u=f(u)+g,\…
Let $f$ be a real-valued function defined on $\mathbb{R}$, with $f(0) \neq 0$ and which is not constant in non empty open intervals. We prove the equations \begin{equation}\label{edif} \left\{ \begin{array}{rcll} (-\Delta )^{s}u & = & f(u),…
We give a local characterization of the class of functions having positive distributional derivative with respect to $\bar{z}$ that are almost everywhere equal to one of finitely many analytic functions and satisfy some mild non-degeneracy…
We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…
Let $G$ be a nonempty bounded domain in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. The main results are general estimates from below at points from $G$ for an arbitrary subharmonic function $u\not\equiv -\infty$ on the closure of the domain $G$…
Symmetry problems in harmonic analysis are formulated and solved. One of these problems is equivalent to the refined Schiffer's conjecture which was recently proved by the author. Let $k=const>0$ be fixed, $S^2$ be the unit sphere in…
Let $M$\/ be a subharmonic function with Riesz measure $\mu_M$ on the unit disk $\mathbb D$ in the complex plane $\mathbb C$. Let $f$ be a nonzero holomorphic function on $\mathbb D$ such that $f$ vanishes on ${\sf Z}\subset \mathbb D$, and…
We first consider a question raised by Alexander Eremenko and show that if $\Omega $ is an arbitrary connected open cone in ${\mathbb R}^d$, then any two positive harmonic functions in $\Omega $ that vanish on $\partial \Omega $ must be…
We prove new one-dimensional symmetry results for non-negative solutions, possibly unbounded, to the semilinear equation $ -\Delta u= f(u)$ in the upper half-space $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+}$. Some Liouville-type theorems are also proven in the…
We consider the problem of approximating the solution of variational problems subject to the constraint that the admissible functions must be convex. This problem is at the interface between convex analysis, convex optimization, variational…
This paper develops a correspondence relating convex hulls of fractional functions with those of polynomial functions over the same domain. Using this result, we develop a number of new reformulations and relaxations for fractional…
We consider nonnegative solutions to $-\Delta u=f(u)$ in unbounded euclidean domains, where $f$ is merely locally Lipschitz continuous and satisfies $f(0)<0$. In the half-plane, and without any other assumption on $u$, we prove that $u$ is…
The conic structure of the convex cone of non-negative operator convex functions on $(0,\infty)$ (also on $(-1,1)$) is clarified. We completely determine the extreme rays, the closed faces, and the simplicial closed faces of this convex…
We discuss the existence of positive superharmonic functions $u$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+=\mathbb{R}^{N-1}\times (0, \infty)$, $N\geq 3$, in the sense $-\Delta u=\mu$ for some Radon measure $\mu$, so that $u$ satisfies the nonlocal boundary…
