The short note here is to give a few heuristic arguments on the weird looking fractional Laplacian operator. This is certainly going to expand the vision of a reader who is looking to develope a taste for research in this direction.

In this paper, we introduce, for the first time, the fractional--logarithmic Laplacian \( (-\Delta)^{s+\log} \), defined as the derivative of the fractional Laplacian \( (-\Delta)^t \) at \( t=s \). It is a singular integral operator with…

We make the split of the integral fractional Laplacian as $(-\Delta)^s u=(-\Delta)(-\Delta)^{s-1}u$, where $s\in(0,\frac{1}{2})\cup(\frac{1}{2},1)$. Based on this splitting, we respectively discretize the one- and two-dimensional integral…

We study the symmetry properties for solutions of elliptic systems of the type (-\Delta)^{s_1} u = F_1(u, v), (-\Delta)^{s_2} v= F_2(u, v), where $F\in C^{1,1}_{loc}(\R^2)$, $s_1,s_2\in (0,1)$ and the operator $(-\Delta)^s$ is the so-called…

In this paper, we prove that the first eigenfunction of the Laplacian for a horo-convex domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb H^n$ is super log-concave when $\text{diam}(\Omega)$ is not large. Our result is optimal in the sense that there are…

In this paper, we develop a fast and accurate pseudospectral method to approximate numerically the half Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{1/2}$ of a function on $\mathbb{R}$, which is equivalent to the Hilbert transform of the derivative of the…

We face a rigidity problem for the fractional $p$-Laplace operator to extend to this new framework some tools useful for the linear case. It is known that $(-\Delta)^s(1-|x|^{2})^s_+$ and $-\Delta_p(1-|x|^{\frac{p}{p-1}})$ are constant…

We prove a lower bound on the first eigenvalue of the fractional Dirichlet-Laplacian of order $s$ on planar open sets, in terms of their inradius and topology. The result is optimal, in many respects. In particular, we recover a classical…

In this paper, we analyze the $s$-dependence of the solution $u_s$ to the fractional Poisson equation $(-\Delta)^s_{\Omega} = f$ in an open bounded set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. Precisely, we show that the solution map $(0,1)\to…

We construct a positive function $u$ supported and solving $(-\Delta)^{s}u=0$ in a Lipschitz cone. Such a function is unique up to a constant multiplication. Moreover, we show that it is homogeneous of some degree $0<\alpha<2s$.

The classical and the fractional Laplacians exhibit a number of similarities, but also some rather striking, and sometimes surprising, structural differences. A quite important example of these differences is that any function (regardless…
