In this note we give a glimpse of the fractional Laplacian. In particular, we bring several definitions of this non-local operator and series of proofs of its properties. It is structured in a way as to show that several of those properties…
In this note we present some of the most basic aspects of the fractional Laplacean with a self-contained and purely didactic intent, and with a somewhat different slant from the several excellent existing references. Given the interest that…

In this note, we study the connection between the fractional Laplacian operator that appeared in the recent work of Caffarelli-Silvestre and a class of conformally covariant operators in conformal geometry.
We introduce a fractional magnetic pseudorelativistic operator for a general fractional order $s\in(0,1)$. First we define a suitable functional setting and we prove some fundamental properties. Then we show the behavior of the operator as…

The fractional Laplacian operator, $-(-\triangle)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$, appears in a wide class of physical systems, including L\'evy flights and stochastic interfaces. In this paper, we provide a discretized version of this operator which…
This paper presents a new formulation of the fractional Laplacian operator $(-\Delta)^s$ in $n$-dimensional space ($n \ge 1$). The proposed formulation expresses $(-\Delta)^s$ as a composition of the classical Laplace differential operator…
In this PhD thesis, we deal with problems related to nonlocal operators, in particular to the fractional Laplacian and to some other types of fractional derivatives (the Caputo and the Marchaud derivatives). We make an extensive…
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 use a characterization of the fractional Laplacian as a Dirichlet to Neumann operator for an appropriate differential equation to study its obstacle problem in perforated domains.
For the fractional Laplace equation, a surprising observation is the non-uniqueness for the basic Dirichlet type problems. In this paper, a somewhat sharp uniqueness condition for the fractional Laplace equation is established. We derive…
A form of the Laplace transform is reviewed as a paradigm for an entire class of fractional functional transforms. Various of its properties are discussed. Such transformations should be useful in application to differential/integral…
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…

The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ is a non-local operator which depends on the parameter $\alpha$ and recovers the usual Laplacian as $\alpha \to 2$. A numerical method for the fractional Laplacian is proposed, based on the…
