We establish the optimal regularity of solutions to the Neumann problem for the fractional Laplacian, $(-\Delta)^s u=h$ in $\Omega$, with the external condition $\mathcal N^s u=0$ in $\Omega^c$. For this, a key point is to establish a 1D…

Our concern is the computation of optimal shapes in problems involving $\(-\Delta)^{1/2}$. We focus on the energy $J(\Omega)$ associated to the solution $u\_\Omega$ of the basic Dirichlet problem $(-\Delta)^{1/2} u\_\Omega = 1$ in $\Omega$,…
