Two-term Weyl-type asymptotic law for the eigenvalues of one-dimensional fractional Laplace operator (-d^2/dx^2)^(alpha/2) (0 < alpha < 2) in the interval (-1,1) is given: the n-th eigenvalue is equal to (n pi/2 - (2 - alpha) pi/8)^alpha +…

Given a Riemannian manifold, Weyl's law indicates how the spectrum of the Laplacian behaves asymptotically. Because of that result, there has been a growing interest in finding geometrical bounds compatible with this law. In the case of…
