We present explicit formulas for solutions to nonhomogeneous boundary value problems involving any positive power of the Laplacian in the half-space. For non-integer powers the operator becomes nonlocal and this requires a suitable…

We consider a Laplacian on the one-sided full shift space over a finite symbol set, which is constructed as a renormalized limit of finite difference operators. We propose a weak definition of this Laplacian, analogous to the one in…
We present a construction of harmonic functions on bounded domains for the spectral fractional Laplacian operator and we classify them in terms of their divergent profile at the boundary. This is used to establish and solve boundary value…
It is noted that the standard definition of the fractional Laplacian leads to a hyper-singular convolution integral and is also obscure about how to implement the boundary conditions. This purpose of this note is to introduce a new…
We qualify a relevant range of fractional powers of the so-called Hamiltonian of point interaction in three dimensions, namely the singular perturbation of the negative Laplacian with a contact interaction supported at the origin. In…
The logarithmic Laplacian on the (whole) N-dimensional Euclidean space is defined as the first variation of the fractional Laplacian of order 2s at s=0 or, alternatively, as a singular Fourier integral operator with logarithmic symbol.…
We establish a lower bound and an upper bound to the sum of the Fractional-Logarithmic Laplacian. A main challenge in such a study comes from the fact that this operator has a Fourier symbol that is not globally monotone in its radial…
We study the boundary value problems for harmonic functions on open connected subsets of post-critically finite (p.c.f.) self-similar sets, on which the Laplacian is defined through a strongly recurrent self-similar local regular Dirichlet…
We provide closed formulas for (unique) solutions of nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problems on balls involving any positive power $s>0$ of the Laplacian. We are able to prescribe values outside the domain and boundary data of different orders…
A boundary value problem is commonly associated with constraints imposed on a system at its boundary. We advance here an alternative point of view treating the system as interacting "boundary" and "interior" subsystems. This view is…
Our concern in this paper is to study the qualitative properties for harmonic functions related to the fractional Laplacian. Firstly we classify the polynomials in the whole space and in the half space for the fractional Laplacian defined…
We study the limiting behavior of solutions to boundary value nonlinear problems involving the fractional Laplacian of order $2s$ when the parameter $s$ tends to zero. In particular, we show that least-energy solutions converge (up to a…
We present a notion of weak solution for the Dirichlet problem driven by the fractional Laplacian, following the Stampacchia theory. Then, we study semilinear problems on bounded domains $\Omega$ with two different boundary conditions at…
We study here a singular perturbation problem of biLaplacian type, which can be seen as the biharmonic counterpart of classical combustion models. We provide different results, that include the convergence to a free boundary problem driven…
The solutions of boundary value problems for the Laplacian and the bilaplacian exhibit very different qualitative behaviors. Particularly, the failure of general maximum principles for the bilaplacian implies that solutions of higher-order…
In even-dimensional Euclidean space for integer powers of the Laplacian greater than or equal to the dimension divided by two, a fundamental solution for the polyharmonic equation has logarithmic behavior. We give two approaches for…
We establish the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions to the problems involving the fractional Laplacian: \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{lll} &(-\Delta)^{s}u=\lambda u^{p}+f(u),\,\,u>0 \quad &\mbox{in}\,\,\Omega,\\…
Using properties of harmonic functions in multidimensional space, we transform the Hartree-Fock eigenvalue problem into a more tractable eigenvalue problem in which the Laplacian is eliminated. This new formulation may facilitate the…
