We study the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{\sigma/2}$ on the $n$-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^n$, $n\geq1$. First, we present a general extension problem that describes \textit{any} fractional power $L^\gamma$, $\gamma>0$, where $L$ is…

This paper concerns the fractional $p$-Laplace operator $\Delta_p^s$ in non-divergence form, which has been introduced in [Bjorland, Caffarelli, Figalli (2012)]. For any $p\in [2,\infty)$ and $s\in (\frac{1}{2},1)$ we first define two…
