Domain of spectral fractional Laplacian
Let $(M,g)$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with Laplacian $\Delta:C^{\infty}_{c}(M)\to C^{\infty}_{c}(M)$ (think of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ if you wish). This operator is essentially self-adjoint in $L^{2}...

Is a continuous functional on continuous functions the restriction of a continuous functional on the space of all functions?
As sets, we can consider the space $C(\mathbf{R}^n;\mathbf{R}^k)$ - of all continuous functions from $\mathbf{R}^n$ to $\mathbf{R}^k$ - to be a subset of the product space $(\mathbf{R}^k)^{\mathbf{R}^...

About definition of stable solution. $Q_u(\phi) \ge 0$ for all $\phi \in C_c^1(\Omega)$ replaced by "for all $\phi \in W_0^{1,2}(\Omega)$"
I want to ask about a remark about the stable solution of elliptic PDE Remark 1.1.1.
We say $u$ is stable solution of $-\Delta u=f(u) \ \text { in } \Omega$ and $u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$ if it ...
