Fractional powers of Dirichlet-to-Neumann map to derive estimate for PDE
Assume $\Omega$ is an open, bounded subset of $\mathbb R^3$ with smooth boundary $\partial \Omega= \Gamma$. For $u \in
H^{1/2}(\Gamma)$, let $U \in H^1(\Omega)$ denote the weak solution of
the ...

Can we interpret fractional Sobolev spaces in terms of fractional derivatives?
Let $1 \leq p < \infty$, $0<s<1$, and $\Omega \subseteq R^n$ be a domain. The Banach space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ is defined as
$$W^{s,p}(\Omega) := \left\{ f \in L^p(\Omega) \colon \int_{\Omega \...

Domain where the fractional Laplacian operator is a closed operator
Consider the fractional Laplacian defined by
$$(-\Delta)^s u(x) = P.V. \int_{\mathbb{R}^N} \frac{u(x) - u(y)}{|x - y|^{N + 2s}}dy, \ s \in (0,1).$$
Also consider that
$$D((-\Delta)^s) = \{u \in H^s(\...

Given $a>0$, find $b>0$ for which $\|\langle x\rangle^{-b}|\partial_x|^{1/2}f\|_{L^2}\lesssim\|\partial_x f\|_{L^2}+\|\langle x\rangle^{-a}f\|_{L^2}$
I have asked the same question on MathSE. I was thinking about the following problem.
Problem. Given $\alpha>0$, find all values of $\beta\geq 0$ such that the following estimate is true for all $\...

Endpoint Calderon-Zygmund inequality of nonlocal fractional laplacian
For $s\in(0,1],$ consider the following non-local fractional laplacian:
$$(-\Delta)^sv= f ~~\text{on } \mathbb{R}^n.$$
Then how to use "the standard elliptic estimate" to obtain:
for $p\in[...

Is the spectral fractional Sobolev norm equivalent to other norms (e.g. Gagliardo...)?
Let $s \in (0, 1)$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded subdomain of $\mathbb R^n$ with polygonal/polyhedral boundary. Let $\Delta$ be the Laplace-Dirichlet operator on $\Omega$ (i.e. the Laplace operator with ...

If $u \in W^{\alpha,p}(0,T;X)$ for $\alpha \in (0,1)$, then $f(u) \in W^{\alpha,q}(0,T;Y)$ for some good $f:X \to Y$
Let $u \in W^{\alpha,p}(0,T;X)$ for some reflexive Banach space $X$ (you can also take a Hilbert space if it helps) for $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and $p \geq 2$. I am fine with both the Sobolev-Slobodeckij ...

Fractional Sobolev norm of characteristic function of an interval?
Is there an explicit expression giving a fractional Sobolev norm of the characteristic function of some interval $I=[a,b)$?
I believe it is true that $\chi_{I} \in W^{s,1}(\mathbb{R})$ for $s < \...

Comparison of two versions of fractional Sobolev spaces: do we have $W^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})=H^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$?
There are two versions of fractional Sobolev spaces.
Definition 1: (Via Gagliardo semi-norm) Let $1\leq p\leq +\infty$, $0<s<1$ and let $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be an open set. The ...

Characterizing the Dual of $W_0^{s,p}$
I am interested in literature/results characterizing the dual of the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is open, bounded, and smooth, $0< s<1$, and $...
