Positive solutions for semilinear fractional elliptic problems involving an inverse fractional operator

Nonlinear Analysis: Real World Applications, 2020

This paper is devoted to the study of the existence of positive solutions for a problem related to a higher order fractional differential equation involving a nonlinear term depending on a fractional differential operator, (−∆) α u = λu + (−∆) β |u| p−1 u in Ω, (−∆) j u = 0 on ∂Ω, for j ∈ Z, 0 ≤ j < [α], where Ω is a bounded domain in R N , 0 < β < 1, β < α < β + 1 and λ > 0. In particular, we study the fractional elliptic problem, (−∆) α−β u = λ(−∆) −β u + |u| p−1 u in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, and we prove existence or nonexistence of positive solutions depending on the parameter λ > 0, up to the critical value of the exponent p, i.e., for 1 < p ≤ 2 * µ − 1 where µ := α − β and 2 * µ = 2N N−2µ is the critical exponent of the Sobolev embedding.

EXISTENCE OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR FRACTIONAL LAPLACIAN EQUATIONS: THEORY AND NUMERICAL EXPERIMENTS

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2020

We consider a class of nonlinear fractional Laplacian problems satisfying the homogeneous Dirichlet condition on the exterior of a bounded domain. We prove the existence of positive weak solution for classes of sublin-ear nonlinearities including logistic type. A method of sub-and supersolution, without monotone iteration, is established to prove our existence results. We also provide numerical bifurcation diagrams and the profile of positive solutions , corresponding to the theoretical results using the finite element method in one dimension.

On the existence of nonnegative solutions of nonlocal boundary value problems for a class of fractional differential equations

Journal of Nonlinear Analysis and Application, 2012

This article studies the existence of nonnegative solutions for a boundary value problem (BVP) of nonlinear fractional differential equations. Some new existence results are obtained by applying Kranoselskii's fixed-point theorem in a cone. First we prove the existence of solutions of an auxiliary BVP formulated by truncating the response function. Then the Arzela-Ascoli theorem is used to take C 1 limits of sequences of such solutions. As an application, we give an examples that illustrate our results.

Existence and Multiplicity of Positive Solutions of Fractional Boundary Value Problems on the Half Line

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2012

In this paper we consider a p-Laplacian equation with strong Allee effect growth rate and Dirichlet boundary condition div(|∇u| p−2 ∇u) + λf (x, u) = 0, x∈ Ω, u = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω, (P λ) where Ω is a bounded smooth domain in R N for N ≥ 1, p > 1, and λ is a positive parameter. By using variational methods and a suitable truncation technique, we prove that problem (P λ) has at least two positive solutions for large parameter and it has no positive solutions for small parameter. In addition, a nonexistence result is investigated.

Existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a class of logistic type elliptic equations in R^N involving fractional Laplacian

arXiv: Analysis of PDEs, 2015

In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for the following nonlinear fractional elliptic equation: \begin{eqnarray*} (-\Delta)^\alpha u=\lambda a(x)u-b(x)u^p&{\rm in}\,\,\R^N, \end{eqnarray*} where $ \alpha\in(0,1) ,, , N\ge 2 ,, ,\lambda >0$, aaa and bbb are positive smooth function in RN\R^NRN satisfying \[ a(x)\rightarrow a^\infty>0\quad {\rm and}\quad b(x)\rightarrow b^\infty>0\quad{\rm as}\,\,|x|\rightarrow\infty. \] Our proof is based on a comparison principle and existence, uniqueness and asymptotic behaviors of various boundary blow-up solutions for a class of elliptic equations involving the fractional Laplacian.

Existence and Asymptotic Behavior of Positive Solutions for Semilinear Fractional Navier Boundary-Value Problems

2017

We study the existence, uniqueness, and asymptotic behavior of positive continuous solutions to the fractional Navier boundary-value problem D(Du)(x) = −p(x)u , ∈ (0, 1), lim x→0 x1−βDαu(x) = 0, u(1) = 0, where α, β ∈ (0, 1] such that α + β > 1, Dβ and Dα stand for the standard Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives, σ ∈ (−1, 1) and p being a nonnegative continuous function in (0, 1) that may be singular at x = 0 and satisfies some conditions related to the Karamata regular variation theory. Our approach is based on the Schäuder fixed point theorem.

Nonexistence of positive solutions to nonlinear nonlocal elliptic systems

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2008

In this paper we consider the question of nonexistence of nontrivial solutions for nonlinear elliptic systems involving fractional diffusion operators. Using a weak formulation approach and relying on a suitable choice of test functions, we derive sufficient conditions in terms of space dimension and systems parameters. Also, we present three main results associated to three different classes of systems.

Semilinear problems for the fractional laplacian with a singular nonlinearity

Open Mathematics, 2015

The aim of this paper is to study the solvability of the problem where Ω is a bounded smooth domain of RN, N > 2s, M ε {0, 1}, 0 < s < 1, γ > 0, λ > 0, p > 1 and f is a nonnegative function. We distinguish two cases: – For M = 0, we prove the existence of a solution for every γ > 0 and λ > 0. A1 – For M = 1, we consider f ≡ 1 and we find a threshold ʌ such that there exists a solution for every 0 < λ < ʌ ƒ, and there does not for λ > ʌ ƒ
