We study one-sided nonlocal equations of the form $$\int_{x_0}^\infty\frac{u(x)-u(x_0)}{(x-x_0)^{1+\alpha}} dx=f(x_0),$$ on the real line. Notice that to compute this nonlocal operator of order $0<\alpha<1$ at a point $x_0$ we need to know…
We give a unified approach to strong maximum principles for a large class of nonlocal operators of the order $s\in(0,1)$, that includes the Dirichlet, the Neumann Restricted (or Regional) and the Neumann Semirestricted Laplacians.
