For more information go to http://mat.ufcg.edu.br/pdefromthesouth/
00:00
in the rational fractional laplacian
00:03
so i will introduce in the next slides
00:06
so the object but still
00:09
just to say that this is a very hot
00:12
topic
00:13
and there are several open problems
00:16
that i will tell about uh
00:20
and it's interesting uh because it
00:23
provides somehow a
00:24
natural uh so natural
00:29
so uh limits uh for the
00:32
for the classical laplacian and for
00:34
classical elliptic regularity theory
00:37
and i think so uh it is important to
00:41
to study these questions not only for
00:44
applications but also for the analytic
00:46
point of view
00:49
what is important and interesting to see
00:51
here is that in fact
00:53
many arguments that are used in the
00:56
classical world cannot walk anymore and
00:58
somehow one has to
01:01
to redefine things and and somehow to
01:04
to find out new ideas in order to
01:08
overcome
01:08
certain difficulties that are involved
01:11
in this
01:12
problem uh so
01:15
let me just uh introduce quickly uh
01:21
uh the first object of study which
01:24
is uh made the fractional application
01:27
that
01:28
maybe many of you know uh so which is an
01:31
integral operator and it is non-local
01:34
in a sense uh if you look at maybe
01:38
if you even if you have a function w
01:41
which is in it is compactly supported
01:45
so you know that just looking at the
01:48
integral equation so the the fractional
01:50
laplacian when it
01:52
when it acts on w this function does not
01:55
necessarily have a compact support
01:58
so which means you cannot you cannot
02:01
only local information so it cannot tell
02:04
you
02:05
much on this operator
02:10
and maybe this is a pv integral so the
02:12
pv integral is defined
02:14
as a limit and maybe uh so
02:18
i think some of you knows also deep
02:21
but we can discuss this anyone who have
02:24
questions can just
02:26
can just stop me uh because it is a
02:28
lecture and since
02:29
it's online maybe uh with slides
02:32
but it's we cannot write everything
02:36
so please stop me and ask questions
02:39
anytime so the
02:43
the constant so that is in front of this
02:45
which
02:46
is a constant that simply uh
02:50
that simply
02:54
tells about
02:58
about when this
03:01
that when we look at the fourier
03:02
transform of this operator
03:05
in this case we have a nice formula we
03:07
will come
03:08
back we will come back to this later on
03:11
and in fact
03:11
using fourier transform or exactly these
03:14
integral equations
03:17
with this term so we can see we with the
03:20
gamma
03:21
function 31 minus s so if s
03:24
is converging to one also so we we
03:27
recover
03:28
the fractional approach and so we
03:31
recover the fractional
03:32
blush and so this is uh something that
03:35
is important and somehow this
03:37
operator provides a limit for the
03:40
classical laplace so the next
03:46
uh here now is what is somehow
03:50
known as the regional fractional
03:52
laplacian or somehow the omega original
03:54
fraction of laplacian
03:56
so maybe if you look at here also we
03:58
feel that nothing changes
04:00
so except that the domain of integration
04:03
is
04:04
now regional
04:07
it's not on the whole space but it's
04:09
rational so this is
04:11
the reason why we call the name of
04:14
regional so in a sense if you look at
04:18
the process for the fractional
04:19
application
04:21
so you have a levy process
04:25
it's generated by levis process which is
04:27
symmetric
04:29
uh stable but
04:32
for the regional fractional laplacian it
04:34
is generated by a process
04:37
which is obtained of course from the
04:39
from the one of the fractional laplacian
04:41
but still that levy process
04:42
is not is not is not symmetric
04:49
but still it is an interesting process
04:53
because it allows somehow to understand
04:57
particles that are sensory to jump
05:00
outside omega so this is the ratio this
05:04
is the reason why the
05:05
public the probabilistic colleagues
05:09
they they they call it sensory
05:11
fractional laplacian or maybe
05:13
sensory process because the process is
05:15
somehow sensory to jump
05:17
outside the domain omega
05:20
and in that case we can somehow define
05:24
different problems in in the case when
05:27
we are interested
05:28
in phenomenon in which we have uh
05:31
particles that should not allow that
05:34
that are not allowed to jump outside
05:36
omega but are
05:38
killed on the boundary or
05:41
reflected when they reach the bond
05:44
and in the brownian case we all know
05:47
that these are
05:47
just the kind of directly conditioned
05:51
in norman condition and so let me just
05:54
go on directly to the to those
05:59
definitions so
06:04
i will start maybe perhaps with perhaps
06:06
in uh
06:07
elementary things that but maybe uh
06:10
just to introduce the notion that we
06:12
want to introduce
06:14
so let me just uh uh
06:17
okay so this is the aim also okay so
06:20
sorry so this is the aim
06:21
of the of the lecture is to give the an
06:24
overview
06:25
of the boundary regularity so for this
06:27
problem that i just mentioned before
06:29
uh so boundary regularity for problems
06:32
involving
06:33
the rational fractional laplacian and
06:35
where
06:36
in the case where we have uh directly
06:40
or neumann boundary conditions so in a
06:42
sense in the situation where
06:46
we have kill the process when they reach
06:48
the boundary or reflected
06:51
so in the brownian case
06:56
this is a
07:01
well known and introduced that
07:04
i just consider so omega an
07:08
open little set and i think maybe many
07:10
of you are already familiar with these
07:12
spaces
07:13
and i introduced the sovereign spaces h1
07:16
and the h1 0 space
07:18
and so which is just the better function
07:21
in h1
07:22
such that so u is zero at the boundary
07:25
and in this case so one is interested in
07:28
the
07:29
in the most famous problems uh the
07:31
simple problems
07:33
uh which are just in the director
07:36
problem
07:37
uh which is uh
07:40
which is just a weak solution for the
07:42
laplacian with a
07:44
solution which are which are zero at the
07:46
boundary
07:48
so these are somehow uh called the
07:51
the direction so the the operator that
07:54
comes with the direct
07:54
boundary conditions comes with just when
07:57
you kill brownian motion
07:59
uh at the boundary which is very
08:02
possible
08:03
but in the case of the fractional
08:04
appliance and we will see that later on
08:06
in in some cases uh the process may not
08:10
even touch the boundary
08:12
and so this is also a future
08:16
that we will see later on and in the
08:19
reflected case
08:21
uh this is the usual norman problem
08:24
where uh so uh we have the fractional
08:27
we have the laplacian of u equal f but u
08:31
is in h1 so in a sense in three
08:34
so we we have a few test functions
08:37
compared to four
08:39
but still in this situation we will see
08:42
that
08:44
so the so that the solutions they have
08:47
they do not have any problem in terms of
08:50
boundary regularity
08:52
but this will not be the case when we
08:54
are when we when we
08:55
when we when we consider the levy
08:57
process uh
08:59
and we will see we will see later on
09:02
that
09:03
this this these two problems will be
09:06
will have
09:06
will be very different in fact
09:12
okay so uh just
09:16
uh just to consider simply so the weak
09:20
formulation of these problems which
09:22
are well known so somehow here uh
09:26
so the the main difference is that in
09:28
fact one is just considering different
09:30
test functions
09:32
uh and and somehow
09:38
and somehow we we in the in the in the
09:41
norman case
09:42
one is looking at functions which are
09:45
continuous and smooth up to the boundary
09:48
well sometimes you can't remove c c
09:50
infinity c the c can be removed of
09:52
course
09:56
and this is just to allow a lot of uh
09:59
to obtain a free boundary on you so you
10:03
do not
10:03
we do not restrict any any we do not
10:06
prescribe any boundary condition on you
10:09
and this will bring a kind of free
10:11
boundary so which is
10:13
a normal derivative but v in the in the
10:16
case of the killed brownian motion or
10:18
maybe the dirichlet problem
10:20
uh one sees that the boundary condition
10:22
is already in the space
10:25
and and somehow uh so uh the
10:29
the simplest uh
10:32
and somehow here the the the important
10:36
point here that one always consider is
10:39
the ghost green formula so
10:41
which allows to say that if you have a
10:44
classical solution
10:47
then
10:51
if you have a classical solution then
10:54
you can make your integration by part
10:57
and then your and then your weak
11:00
solutions
11:01
will become classical solutions
11:08
and this would give somehow that the
11:10
solution
11:11
of the equation that you are looking for
11:13
in a pointwise sense
11:16
but then the question that comes is
11:18
clear now
11:19
so from weak solutions would you can you
11:22
prove that your solution is regular
11:24
enough
11:26
to become classical and also what can
11:29
you see
11:30
at the boundary that allows you also to
11:32
make a full integration by parts
11:35
so that your weak solution
11:39
will be a classical solution and solve
11:42
the equation that you want
11:46
so in the in this in the i will just
11:49
tell
11:50
the classical results for the
11:54
for this for the local operators
11:59
so the the restriction on the test
12:02
functions if you look at this
12:04
we we see immediately that from the
12:06
ghost green formula if i have
12:09
if i have a classical solution then with
12:11
the restriction on the space of test
12:13
functions
12:14
then i will have just simply uh
12:17
a directly problem or maybe a normal
12:20
boundary condition
12:23
because i i live free i live
12:26
i consider a lot of test functions
12:32
uh and so for example this is the number
12:34
and boundary condition somehow that will
12:36
come
12:37
becomes zero
12:41
so this is uh this is the this is a very
12:44
classical uh results that maybe can be
12:48
found also most of these can be found in
12:50
many textbooks
12:53
in particular the book of brazil the
12:56
most the famous book of praises i would
12:58
say
12:59
which contains all the argument
13:03
and motivation of course so
13:06
what we what we would like
13:09
now to show let me just show that what
13:11
is
13:12
known for this uh for this uh for this
13:15
uh
13:16
what is the regularity for the weak
13:18
solutions
13:20
the known regularity are
13:23
somehow oh sorry let me talk about
13:25
existence because
13:26
it will be important to parallel all of
13:28
this in the non-local theory
13:30
you know when you in the non-local
13:32
theory so there are things
13:34
so i'm writing this because in the
13:36
non-local case you you
13:37
you you may have sometimes
13:40
these inequalities or maybe this type of
13:44
regularity but sometimes
13:45
you may not and so this is the reason
13:49
why i prefer to write
13:51
all of this just to introduce what will
13:53
come next
13:56
so the usual price inequality maybe you
13:58
all know that the gradient of the
14:00
function
14:00
is bounded by the square norm of the
14:03
function the l2 norm
14:04
if i'm if i have if i'm zero at the
14:06
boundary
14:07
and use a constant which depends somehow
14:09
in general on the measure of omega
14:12
and which of course blows up when the
14:15
measure of the omega is becoming smaller
14:18
and smaller
14:19
but at the same time we also have
14:23
the five car inequality which you
14:25
sometimes call it the park every finger
14:29
one card every single inequality in
14:32
which case that
14:34
the function should be perpendicular to
14:35
one to the constant function one
14:41
and this is somehow uh important for the
14:45
fractional laplace for the first sorry
14:46
for the for the for the
14:48
for the existence of solution in the
14:49
normal problem
14:51
and of course
14:55
the constant function is in general a
14:57
solution so
14:58
which means you have to kill it from
15:00
killing it in which you wait
15:02
which means you have to be perpendicular
15:05
to the constant function
15:07
in the l2 sense which is exactly
15:10
this
15:14
and yet these
15:18
inequalities will tell me that
15:22
in fact i will be quality
15:28
when i'm looking at the minimization
15:30
problem
15:32
i'm coercive and so
15:35
i can apply lux milligram or maybe
15:38
it is representation theorem or maybe
15:41
any kind of
15:42
argument that that
15:45
that allows me
15:48
there are many many many arguments
15:52
about anyone who is interested maybe can
15:54
just
15:55
look at the book of praises
16:06
my writing are very bad i hope you can
16:08
read this but
16:09
it's
16:13
very strange so let me
16:17
so the book of praises could be a very
16:20
nice to understand this so you know uh
16:23
but all these arguments are very
16:24
abstract so in fact
16:26
in general you only need a bilinear form
16:28
and then
16:29
which is coercive continues and then you
16:31
have solutions
16:35
so so and and this is in general what
16:37
happens for the for the
16:39
for for many things so even if you
16:40
replace the the the gradient
16:42
is a non-degrading square noun with
16:44
something else
16:45
in general if you have this type of
16:47
inequalities which allows you to get
16:50
it allows you uh to get a coercivity
16:52
then you get existence of minimizer so
16:54
which means even in the non-local theory
16:56
so it's
16:57
it's still the same and and it's not it
17:00
doesn't cost too much somehow to
17:02
obtain to to obtain existence of
17:05
solutions and things like that
17:16
so so the classical regular theory so
17:20
let me
17:21
just uh consider uh
17:24
here uh the the the dirichlet problem so
17:27
here which is the solute
17:29
these are weak solutions
17:32
so if i have variational solutions for
17:35
both the deeply entertainment problem
17:38
i can immediately obtain
17:41
many interesting arguments some
17:44
sorry so the first is that in fact i can
17:48
have strong solutions
17:50
so in some textbooks they use the word
17:52
strong solutions because
17:54
when i have f l p then i can know that
17:57
the fractional laplacian of u
18:00
or the fractional laplacian of v which
18:02
is the solution to the
18:03
directly ornament problem they they are
18:07
point wide defined
18:08
in fact they are in lp
18:11
so and in other text
18:14
books also they call this the calderon
18:16
sigmund theory
18:19
uh so and you see it's it's not it's w2p
18:23
and and when i consider w2p so which
18:26
means i have interesting things
18:28
up to the boundary and in fact
18:32
a simple and a simple
18:36
implication i would say also is that
18:39
if if p is large then in fact i am
18:43
in c 2 minus n over p
18:47
up to the boundary so which means
18:50
also my even my even my
18:54
gradient is bounded and somehow up to
18:56
the boundary and even holder continues
18:59
this is a result that can be obtained uh
19:03
so maybe by using uh different
19:07
uh different arguments maybe blow up
19:10
arguments or maybe
19:11
uh perturbative arguments
19:15
uh like cathedrally or many
19:18
many many arguments can be used in order
19:20
to prove
19:21
this without even without knowing this
19:30
and of course it's also if you have
19:33
for instance if omega is is the full
19:36
space then one can also prove
19:38
it by simply by simply uh
19:42
using the risk kernel
19:47
but in a sense it comes directly by
19:49
using the more
19:50
embedding uh the more embedding of
19:54
the w2p in c2 minus n
19:57
over p and and so yeah
20:02
it's the images for classical theory and
20:06
now
20:06
uh another interesting point is
20:11
the shouter theory
20:14
uh oops so the shoulder theory in this
20:18
case also for both solutions
20:20
we know that if if my if i have folder
20:23
continues my right hand side
20:25
holder continues and omega is
20:28
folded continuous
20:32
c to alpha then my solution are also
20:35
c-12
20:39
and this is important
20:44
and so the book for all these can be so
20:47
for all these results
20:48
of the book the the the one of the best
20:51
textbook is the gilbert schrodinger
20:56
and so gilbert rodinger so they use
21:01
freddie mercury in order to prove these
21:04
maximum principles and this slide but
21:06
but still
21:08
you can use foreign which works
21:10
perfectly
21:11
for the laplace operator but when you
21:14
come in the case of the fractional
21:16
laplacian so there is a serious problem
21:19
and the federal material will not work
21:21
uh the reason is that in a sense you
21:24
know uh
21:25
you cannot have you cannot have this
21:28
result so it's impossible
21:30
that you that you can obtain this
21:34
this is the this is the main problem uh
21:37
so
21:38
this is the reason why in a sense one
21:40
should
21:41
somehow find out new techniques in order
21:44
to
21:44
uh in order to obtain this regularity
21:46
result
21:48
so the productivity is very interesting
21:51
and also works
21:52
nicely when you replace laplacian with a
21:54
divergence type
21:55
operator or even or a non-diverse type
21:58
operator
22:01
but it's not clear so the perturbative
22:04
argument or maybe the compactness
22:06
argument
22:07
also in the spirit of kafir really
22:10
also works perfectly uh so this is and a
22:13
blow up argument
22:14
also are nice enough but sometimes
22:18
it works sometimes they do not work for
22:20
like further for
22:21
for for uh for
22:25
for for the problems for the non-local
22:27
problems that will be
22:38
considered
22:40
so the question now uh we
22:43
are asking is maybe okay
22:47
so here we simply consider
22:51
weak solutions by looking at the h1
22:54
somehow energy space the semi normal of
22:56
the energy space
22:59
but then if i look at the if i replace
23:02
now the h1
23:04
sub ellipse space by the hs subway space
23:07
for s more than one
23:09
so what will be what will happen
23:13
and you will see that even if i dig if i
23:16
if i
23:17
if i consider h s for s smaller than one
23:20
this is the reason why i didn't
23:21
put h1 omega and hs omega then even for
23:25
s smaller than one there are many many
23:27
spaces
23:28
there are many spaces that approximate
23:30
h1 0
23:31
and 81 omega but which are both
23:34
fractional
23:34
and they have interesting similarities
23:38
so this is the reason why i just arrived
23:40
h1 in hs but instead of h1 omega and hs
23:43
omega and we will see
23:45
we will see that we will see the
23:47
different spaces
23:48
that can comes into play and also those
23:52
those bases will define as we should
23:56
expect uh the natural boundary condition
24:00
whether it will be dirichlet neumann or
24:03
things like that
24:13
so the
24:16
the fractional sublist basis so the
24:18
first
24:19
so the the the the fraction of civil
24:22
species so let me just
24:23
look at uh i just look at this what we
24:26
call sometimes people call the gallium
24:28
norms defined by legally i don't know
24:31
but if only guys in iran
24:33
and and even not an iron one can define
24:35
them by
24:36
fourier transform maybe uh
24:40
say the vessel species and things
24:43
but still if you if it's restricted on s
24:46
between zero and one
24:47
uh it's better it's simpler maybe to use
24:50
the gallery
24:51
at the seminar because uh the use of
24:54
these
24:55
seminars will allow us to see the
24:57
operator under consideration
25:04
so the reference for this is
25:07
the textbook of griswa
25:11
which contains all these which contains
25:14
many of these results even sometimes
25:16
omega may not be considered lipschitz
25:18
but even continuous also
25:21
and the results that i'm going to say
25:26
below
25:29
so hs0 similar like h10 so is the
25:32
smallest space that contains uh
25:35
c infinity c in h s omega and
25:38
[Music]
25:39
and so well one can one can think maybe
25:42
that it has the same a
25:44
property than h1 but it's not the case
25:47
uh we will see that it's not it doesn't
25:50
have the same properties like
25:51
h1 but even if it is defined by the
25:55
closure of the infinite respect to the
25:57
hs noun
25:58
is it's an interesting space and in fact
26:02
and sometimes comparable to the hs
26:05
space omega
26:13
another interesting space
26:16
is also the space calligraphic age
26:22
which is also the space hs0
26:27
calligraphic hs which is the space of
26:30
functions
26:31
u in hsrn but still
26:34
u is the zero in the exterior of omega
26:37
and this space is
26:39
undoubted with respect to the to the
26:41
norm
26:47
so in a sense it's very interesting so
26:50
so the norm
26:53
hs and somehow the fourier transform
26:57
notation can works perfectly in this
27:00
case
27:03
so the space telegraphic h
27:06
is is is if it is different from the
27:10
space hs0
27:14
and whenever you have a space
27:18
such kind of space uh these are kind of
27:21
dirty space they somehow define
27:23
operators and all the operators are we
27:26
will see
27:27
uh so they are different
27:32
in a in in a certain sense
27:35
uh and previously that late
27:39
so there are interesting properties so
27:41
one of the first properties is the
27:42
density
27:44
so if i remember if i i think even omega
27:47
lip sheets is even too much but even
27:49
omega is continuous i think you have
27:51
synthetic see
27:53
omega bar is dancing in hs
27:57
of course by definition you don't need
28:01
to talk about
28:02
we don't need that but so we have the
28:04
density of c infinity c
28:05
omega bar in h s
28:11
we also have a density of infinity c
28:16
in h as 0 with respect to the h
28:20
as norm of course
28:24
with respect to the hf norm
28:29
which is true by weakening the
28:32
regularity of omega continuity is enough
28:43
and also we have the link between the
28:46
space hs0
28:49
and also the space
28:59
so if i if i wanted to be uh
29:02
if i wanted to to consider a function
29:05
for for which
29:06
if i extend by 0 i will be in
29:09
calligraphic edge because you know
29:10
the calligraphic hs0 are functions which
29:13
are defined
29:14
on rn so
29:17
this is the reason why we consider the
29:19
extension
29:22
to the function that is defined in rn
29:25
but
29:25
if i consider a function u which is in
29:28
hs0
29:28
and if i extend it by zero it is not
29:31
necessarily in hs0
29:32
unless i ask this type of
29:35
rb term to be finite
29:45
this type of hard term so these are
29:48
scale invariant term in the sense that
29:52
it scales exactly
29:56
like like the seminar
30:01
and so it is
30:04
it is not in fact negligible but
30:08
if you look at this carefully then one
30:10
can see that in fact
30:13
the constant function say the function
30:15
one
30:17
for s smaller than one half belongs to
30:20
hs0
30:23
so so if i if i look at this so
30:27
if 2s is smaller than 1
30:36
then the constant function one belongs
30:39
to
30:40
hs0
30:47
and also satisfies
30:57
which is
31:02
so as a consequence so if i
31:05
extend the characteristic function then
31:08
belongs to hs0 my
31:12
calligraphic edge
31:20
so this is uh a nice way somehow to find
31:24
out whether certain functions
31:25
also belongs to calligraphic hs omega
31:30
but if 2s is larger than 1 this is
31:32
completely this is false
31:37
and and so the the link between the two
31:40
spaces so one can
31:42
see that by just
31:46
just looking at the double integral
31:49
uh so if i look at the double integral
31:52
because h is zero so this is given by
31:54
the hs norm
31:55
in rm so if i look at the double
31:58
integral
31:59
so sometimes if i write so in ram
32:04
integral n
32:08
then i can separate it so with the
32:10
seminar
32:11
in omega squared
32:15
plus the integral
32:18
in omega integral in r omega
32:26
and so this is the so this is this
32:28
feminine
32:29
square
32:38
i don't know why i something is the
32:41
electricity
32:43
i think my hand has some electricity
32:46
okay so let me so the feminine squared
32:49
is given just
32:50
by this and so if i
32:53
if i look at this so i will have some
32:55
something like u squared
32:57
because uh somehow x and and i have the
33:00
x minus y to the power n
33:02
plus 2 s so the dx is for omega
33:06
and and and this guy is exactly
33:10
when i look at this so this term so the
33:13
integral
33:15
over rn minus omega
33:24
so this is the term that is somehow
33:27
almost equal to the distance function to
33:29
the x
33:30
to the minus two s and this is the
33:33
reason why
33:34
uh one always have to find out this
33:39
this deferred term
33:47
another interesting fact
34:00
hs0 and hs
34:03
are the same for s between zero and one
34:06
half
34:08
so for s between strictly smaller than
34:11
one half
34:13
it's not that difficult to prove
34:16
but for f equal one half which is
34:18
critical it's
34:20
not easy to prove and so uh
34:24
for this reason so uh
34:27
one can look at the book of grief and
34:30
also but it was
34:32
where he quoted also the works of jack
34:35
louise
34:39
and so this is already important to see
34:41
to to show that in fact if
34:43
i look at the operator's problems
34:47
variation
34:50
that comes from these spaces that
34:54
there is something interesting that if s
34:56
between zero and one half i have an
34:58
intersection of the directly and
34:59
one problem yeah
35:03
it is somehow very trendy but the
35:05
probabilistic people
35:06
they found out this and they they have a
35:09
nice interpretation
35:11
which you will see uh if you will see
35:13
very soon
35:18
so another property is that in fact we
35:21
also
35:22
have a thresh theorem that
35:25
if s is larger than one half
35:28
then i have
35:33
the embedding so i have a trace so hf
35:37
will have a trace
35:38
and of course in fact this is compact
35:40
yeah so this is a compact
35:42
this is the compact embedding because i
35:45
can be
35:46
because i can be uh in hs
35:49
minus one half and this was
35:53
stated in many books but never proved
35:57
uh but being proved it
36:00
in 1996 with a
36:04
very clever argument i think it was
36:07
important in fact to
36:08
to to to write a proof instead of
36:12
just quoting different papers in which
36:15
maybe the proof are not very clear
36:21
okay so now i think we have all the
36:23
spaces that we need
36:27
in terms of if you if you are if you are
36:30
if you are
36:31
if you are interested in the in the in
36:34
the fractional in the problems
36:36
arising problems involving the
36:38
fractional laplacian or maybe
36:40
regional fractional laplacian
36:56
so
37:00
what is what we always need uh
37:03
in general is uh is that we always we
37:07
the sub-level inequalities which also
37:10
gives the provide embedding
37:12
and and why i tell about this non-linear
37:14
inequality
37:15
so in general this non-linear inequality
37:18
allows
37:20
to run a digital
37:23
iteration in order to obtain
37:26
a priori l infinity bond and approve
37:29
holder
37:31
continuity and harmonic inequality so
37:34
one in general does not even need to get
37:37
to star
37:37
s but so the scale invariant inequality
37:40
but
37:40
simply simply a non-linear inequality
37:44
is in general enough
37:49
but the two star as norm is just
38:02
so the true stars norm it just allows to
38:06
uh to obtain uh scale invariant
38:09
inequality which is sometimes
38:10
interesting it is interesting for some
38:12
applications but when it turns
38:14
and it comes to regularity estimates one
38:17
does only need
38:18
a non-linear inequality so 2 star can be
38:20
any p but we still larger than 2.
38:26
and of course if 2s is larger than 1
38:28
then
38:29
we can replace the seminar with the full
38:31
norm
38:32
so in this case
38:36
in this case that we also have of
38:39
the the sub inequality for the problem
38:43
inequality for role p
38:45
between one and infinity and which also
38:48
provides an only
38:58
quantity
39:04
and also in the case of buffer domain
39:09
so here uh it's not
39:13
it's not always true that you can just
39:15
consider the seminar
39:17
but in most cases you need to consider
39:19
the full norm
39:25
in some cases the seminar does not bound
39:29
from below so we do not have only
39:32
the inequality even if we
39:36
even if we consider p which is the scale
39:38
invariant now
39:42
but if you add the l2 norm we always
39:44
have a non-linear inequality
39:46
which is in general enough or what one
39:50
what one needs in the
39:53
in the in the in the in the upreary
39:55
balance for
39:56
four weeks solution
40:00
uh so uh and so the so maybe uh
40:04
there are domain there are uh domains uh
40:07
so here in a sense one needs some kind
40:09
of extension
40:10
uh property domain which have extension
40:13
property
40:13
in order to use in order to use
40:17
this inequality uh but if omega sleep
40:21
sheets
40:22
it's fine uh but there are open sets in
40:25
which
40:26
one does not have the the inequality
40:30
uh that one does not have the sublime
40:33
inequality
40:34
so which means one has to be very
40:36
careful
40:38
uh when one applies or maybe think that
40:40
this
40:41
is an immediate consequence of the of
40:43
the
40:45
of the one of the inequality that
40:46
happens in rm
40:49
so uh i think there are interesting uh
40:53
books uh but maybe uh the lecture note
40:57
of uh of uh valdenocchi
41:01
and uh palatochi maybe this
41:06
they i think it contains interesting
41:10
interesting results so let me
41:14
[Music]
41:18
uh
41:22
so the hitch so the hitchhiker's guide
41:24
so the heat shield guide the contains
41:27
in the in the section five extension
41:30
of couple of spaces dominance
41:34
in which you can obtain the cyber life
41:37
inequality
41:39
but if omega is leave you are
41:42
completely safe so i i write here n
41:46
minus 2 s plus which means that if if n
41:49
is smaller than 2s then then i can go up
41:52
to infinity so this
41:53
is just
41:56
or this is defined before n
41:59
larger than 2 s but if n is smaller than
42:01
2s i go up to infinity
42:13
okay so now i now would like to
42:16
introduce the problems that are
42:17
involving uh
42:19
involving the fractional laplacian so
42:22
let me just introduce this energy
42:24
uh so uh sometimes one start is the
42:28
problem
42:28
and then look at the energy but i do it
42:30
in the other way around
42:32
i look at the energy and then i
42:36
i try to look at the irregular glass
42:37
equation of the energy
42:39
but this is not the correct way in
42:42
general the correct way
42:44
you have a problem and then you define
42:46
your energy the energy that you want to
42:48
minimize
42:49
it is sometimes it's very it's very easy
42:52
to obtain the energy
42:54
that has to be minimized and give you
42:55
the earlier equation of the problem you
42:57
want
42:58
but sometimes it's not immediate at all
43:02
but for the problem we are considering
43:04
this this is
43:07
it's not that difficult and so
43:10
here uh so one so this
43:15
this this nice uh so this what is under
43:18
consideration in
43:19
in so if you look at in r2 and i look at
43:22
omega here omega here
43:24
so uh what i'm just looking at is the
43:27
energy in
43:28
the double energy
43:31
in the spaces
43:38
and so this is the
43:44
so the double energy in the space and
43:46
somehow if you
43:47
when when you look at this energy you
43:49
can prescribe your directly a problem
43:52
with the non-zero digital problem of
43:54
course if you like you can also
43:56
prescribe a kind of exterior
43:58
normal normal boundary condition
44:16
so the fractional legitimate approach so
44:18
if you wanted to fraction of particular
44:20
problems so here you see
44:22
i look at the calligraphic it is zero
44:28
if i look at the calligraphic edge is
44:30
zero uh so this is exactly uh
44:34
the semi norm in hs rn
44:51
of course square one one over four
44:55
and
44:58
and so uh because uh if you remember
45:01
very well the calligraphic hs0 which is
45:03
different from hs0 is something that is
45:06
defined on the whole space
45:07
it's a function that are defined on the
45:09
whole space rn but even if they are zero
45:11
at the bottom
45:17
in the case now if i leave
45:22
the problem if i leave the boundary free
45:27
which means i do not prescribe anything
45:30
in the exterior
45:33
then in that case i minimize among
45:37
among functions which are in hsrn
45:42
then both problems will become are
45:45
different but in a sense we we can see
45:48
this as the classical
45:49
directory problem and the other one as a
45:52
classical name and problem
45:55
and in fact these are the case because
45:57
if you look at the energy and if you
45:58
send
45:59
s to one recover the classical directly
46:03
problem which you introduced
46:04
in the first slides and if and also the
46:07
norman problem
46:08
as we introduce it in the first slides
46:17
but let us just look at the
46:23
the earlier so the derivative the first
46:26
derivative of the energy
46:28
that we are considering so here if you
46:31
look at this energy
46:32
then we simply see two terms that comes
46:36
here one is
46:40
the integral in rn so which is so the
46:43
integral in
46:44
rn of ux minus uy
46:47
which is the the fractional laplacian
46:52
and another
47:01
which comes the fractional application
47:03
and another term so this is somehow
47:06
a kind of one can see say it's a kind of
47:08
counterpart of the
47:10
of the of the of the ghost green formula
47:14
but this just comes by using the
47:16
symmetry
47:17
of the kernel k x y is one over mod
47:21
x minus y to the power plus 2f
47:27
and somehow this leaves
47:31
this says that at least if i look at the
47:35
minimizers for problem 1 over 12
47:39
in this case i minimize and phi
47:42
is infinity c function in omega
47:46
which which means this is 0
47:51
and therefore this term will disappear
47:53
however
47:54
if i let phi to vary in rn
47:59
then i will obtain a kind of nominal
48:01
boundary condition
48:02
which was introduced by
48:06
by dipiero rostoton serra ross autumn
48:10
sorry
48:10
and involved notch
48:22
and so if i the consequence of this
48:29
is precisely uh that
48:32
we have the person problem for
48:36
let me do we have a personal problem
48:39
which is the brings so the the dirichlet
48:42
energy so if i minimize
48:44
so my solution will become
48:51
become
48:54
uh the director problem so with exterior
48:57
normal boundary condition
49:00
and also a kind of nerman boundary
49:03
condition
49:05
in the x area
49:08
so these are the problems that the
49:10
energy that i am considering in the
49:13
in the in so which is a non-local energy
49:17
gives to me so a directly problem
49:20
exterior directly problem and a kind of
49:23
exterior normal problem
49:26
and both problems so if s is converging
49:29
to one
49:37
then we recover the
49:42
classical
49:45
problem
49:49
local problems
49:52
which means the
49:56
direct problem for the
49:59
for the laplacian and the norman problem
50:02
for the laplacian
50:04
so uh so this was introduced
50:07
by uh
50:15
cross buttons
50:20
and welding notes
50:25
kind of exterior normal boundary
50:27
condition
50:28
and uh
50:32
and it was since then so it attracted
50:34
many people
50:35
and in fact there are interesting
50:37
probabilistic interpretations
50:40
it was recently
50:43
i think it was one dry czech who also
50:46
construct processes
50:48
related to this type of normal voluntary
50:50
condition in which case
50:53
which in which case somehow if particles
50:56
are allowed to jump in the exterior of
50:58
omega
50:59
but whenever they jump so they they they
51:01
are reflected again
51:02
inside omega
51:06
uh in the dirichlet case this is very
51:09
well known
51:10
that in this case so the process are
51:13
killed
51:13
when they leave omega so in this case
51:18
you can think about the particles will
51:20
come are allowed to jump in the exterior
51:22
of omega but whenever they are there so
51:24
they are killed
51:27
let me just say quickly that in the
51:30
the problems that we want to consider in
51:33
this talk which are the regional case
51:36
there particles will not be allowed to
51:39
jump into exterior
51:41
they can only jump inside omega but they
51:44
will never jump
51:45
in the exterior and this is the they
51:48
they so
51:49
somehow they they are sensory to jump
51:51
outside and somehow they jump in
51:53
original
51:53
part direction and the consideration
51:56
because the mission
51:57
is killed the measure is killed
52:02
and is stopped omega
52:20
so uh let me quickly discuss
52:23
a few interesting properties
52:27
for the fractional laplacian
52:32
is that if you look at the fractional
52:34
appliance and so it's an it's an it's a
52:37
pseudo differential operator
52:41
with a beautiful symbol
52:44
not differentiable at zero but still
52:48
nice to use and of course uh maybe you
52:51
you you see maybe simply from here that
52:54
if s is converging to one then you get
52:56
the symbol of the laplace operator
53:05
and we have interesting mapping
53:06
properties that
53:08
these are very important in general so
53:10
for instance
53:13
for instance i mentioned in the
53:14
beginning that
53:16
sometimes one can use the um
53:20
for example in the book of childbirth
53:21
truth that one can use pradel mateuri to
53:24
obtain also shout out theory
53:26
so this is these are interesting
53:28
properties that in fact
53:30
allows you to do that that your operator
53:32
has some interesting mapping properties
53:39
so for the fight for so just to mention
53:42
that for the original fractional
53:43
laplacian this is not true
53:45
this is not true
53:48
so for the distributional domain of the
53:51
operator which is very important
53:53
is that in fact so you so it's defined
53:56
by the space l1 s
53:58
which is the space of functions for
54:00
which you have integrability
54:02
uh far away uh at infinity
54:06
so and this is uh this allows
54:10
in a sense to say that in fact
54:14
the fractional laplacian acts on
54:17
temporary distribution
54:22
and this comes just from these estimates
54:28
in a sense if we simply recall
54:36
so if you recall the
54:41
oh sometimes the why this is not writing
54:44
properly
54:45
okay so let me just stop okay so uh if
54:48
you recall
54:49
uh the if you recall the the the
54:52
fractional laplace and then we see that
54:54
if x
54:55
is compactly supported then then far
54:57
away
54:58
uh we always have this term so in a
55:01
sense this is not compactly supported
55:03
but anytime you have u in l 1 s then
55:07
the fractional laplacian applied to u
55:10
is a distribution
55:26
so the fractional reflection applied to
55:28
you will become a distribution
55:31
uh just because of this estimate
55:34
well some in some way
55:38
several people they try to enlarge
55:41
this distributional domain
55:46
the distributional domain is in a sense
55:48
maybe i would say the
55:49
the the largest domain in which may when
55:52
you you can apply the fractional
55:54
application on those functions
55:56
and there somehow they define a kind of
55:59
equivalent class uh
56:00
so it's a paper of dpiro uh valdinochi
56:04
and and savine by considering functions
56:08
with polynomial growth
56:10
so when you look at functions with
56:12
polynomial growth of course you know
56:13
that
56:14
if the polynomial the growth of the
56:16
polynomial is larger than
56:17
2s then you cannot define the fractional
56:19
laplacian acting on those functions
56:22
but still they find a way to define it
56:25
and in that case so you have an
56:27
equivalent class of solution so in a
56:29
sense
56:30
when you act a function when you act to
56:33
you
56:34
on functions you have this type of
56:35
growth that when you make the action of
56:37
the fractional application of those one
56:39
you have sometimes of this kind of
56:40
growth you have many
56:43
you can have many solutions in fact for
56:45
for the problems
56:46
if you wanted to find solutions into
56:48
this polynomial
56:50
but uh so but it's an interesting fact
56:53
that was used
56:54
recently by ross orton and
56:59
in order to obtain the the optimal and
57:03
full boundary regularity for the
57:05
directly problem in the fractional
57:07
application so this is a paper that
57:08
appeared
57:10
presently in advances of mathematics in
57:14
2020
57:18
so another important factor is that in
57:21
fact
57:22
when you have a convul when you have a
57:23
molecular a nice modifier
57:26
then you you can commute
57:29
you can commute the fractional flash and
57:33
also with
57:34
this modifier
57:38
so recall that the fraction and so you
57:41
uh this so this
57:42
if functions that are here are temporary
57:44
distributions
57:45
and therefore they have free transform
57:48
in other words so this can be proved
57:50
using fourier transform
57:52
or simply using the symmetry of the
57:55
integral
57:56
uh so it's a it's a very nice thing to
57:59
have
57:59
in a sense maybe that you see if you if
58:02
you have
58:02
functions which are somehow harmonic or
58:05
things like that
58:06
so you do not need to consider
58:10
distributional solutions but you can
58:12
simply consider c infinity solutions
58:14
you prove what you want to prove and
58:16
then you pass to the limit
58:19
you also have the cattle inequality
58:23
so you know the cattle inequality is
58:27
is is sometimes useful also if you want
58:30
to obtain so decay or maybe bounce of
58:32
solutions
58:34
uh and maybe one can prove
58:38
the more general results maybe that
58:42
let me try to write
59:06
so phi is leap sheets and convex
59:18
so why is lipstick and convex uh then
59:21
one can also have
59:23
the more general inequality uh which is
59:26
known as the cattle inequality
59:30
rather than only absolute value and
59:33
uh why this is interesting
59:36
uh of course this is interesting because
59:39
somehow you can think about
59:41
uh considering phi of t
59:44
equal t to the power alpha
59:47
and therefore with alpha larger than one
59:57
and in this case one can immediately
60:01
think that with a non-linear inequality
60:05
then i can run the dejorgi
60:08
the dejorji mother iteration
60:12
in order to obtain in order to obtain
60:16
the apiary all their estimate
60:21
and hardnack inequalities
60:27
yeah so this is these are these are the
60:29
in general the main ingredients that one
60:31
makes
60:34
a non-linear survey of inequalities and
60:37
this kind of
60:38
in this kind of and this kind of
60:42
cattle inequality
60:45
uh so what all these result that i am
60:48
saying also
60:49
uh you know i just consider the
60:51
fractional laplacian but it works for
60:53
many many many other problems
60:55
like like replacing the kernel of the
60:58
fractional laplacian but with the
61:00
translation in one and kerma
61:06
only about but anytime you consider a
61:09
translation invariant kernel
61:10
then in general you have all these
61:13
all these properties and therefore one
61:16
can just
61:17
consider general non-local operators and
61:20
this
61:20
and one can simply apply uh
61:24
use the kind of the geology iteration in
61:26
order to get upright bounds
61:27
because uh yeah so you have cutter
61:30
inequality and a non-linear symbolic
61:36
inequality
61:45
so uh so these are these are
61:49
the questions well i was also personally
61:52
interested
61:53
in is is that maybe to find out
61:57
explicit solutions that comes with the
61:59
fractional laplacian
62:01
and these are sometimes sometimes they
62:04
are very rare
62:06
very difficult to get
62:10
and so what i was first
62:13
was looking uh some years ago was that
62:16
are there
62:16
uh functions which are
62:22
uh so which are harmonic in the whole
62:24
space
62:25
with respect to the fractional
62:27
application so these are in the
62:29
distributional sense
62:30
but as i said before you may even
62:32
consider use infinity because the
62:34
convolution works perfectly
62:39
because the fact that the operator
62:40
commits with convolution
62:46
and and in a sense when i was so trying
62:48
to to to understand this then i find out
62:50
that in fact
62:51
as long as any time that i stay in the
62:54
distributional domain of the fractional
62:56
laplacian then
62:57
there is no there is no uh no
63:00
no harmonic function which is not
63:02
undefined function
63:04
uh so and afterwards so there are
63:09
so i used a proof so by proving a kind
63:12
of non-local
63:14
kind of non-local cauchy estimates
63:17
uh so from which i use them to prove
63:20
this but
63:21
a nice proof or maybe a simple proof
63:23
also comes
63:25
can be used also which is uh which
63:28
uses precisely the fourier transform
63:31
uh the fourier transform because u is a
63:34
temporary distribution because it is in
63:36
l1s and therefore you can simply
63:40
the courier transform and invert the
63:42
operator
63:44
in order to obtain that
63:47
so so the idea could be somehow that
63:52
if i can make the fourier transform then
63:55
i would say
63:56
so the
64:10
wow
64:21
so if i look at the fourier transform
64:23
then i will see that one
64:24
theta to the power 2 s you had is 0 but
64:28
mod 0 to the power 2 s is different from
64:30
0 everywhere
64:31
except except at 0
64:35
so which means
64:39
so the support of you heart
64:44
is in zero so this is formal proof
64:50
and from which this implies that in fact
64:54
u is a polynomial
65:17
so this is a simple proof that can be
65:20
used by fluid transform but of course to
65:22
make the fourier transform
65:23
in this direction so one has to do a
65:25
little bit as
65:26
little works but this is exactly the
65:29
proof
65:30
and you know uh why so this is not
65:32
correct for the fractional lab for the
65:34
photo for the laplacian of course for
65:35
the laplacian the distributional domain
65:37
is l1 lock
65:40
an l1 lock is not a temporary
65:42
distribution therefore
65:44
you cannot you cannot use this argument
65:50
so in a thought so the argument that is
65:53
used here is just because the fractional
65:55
laplacian
65:55
acts on temporary distributions
66:10
so another rigidity result that uh
66:14
that were proved by
66:18
that we proved to uh
66:22
by uh blue mental and great tour and
66:26
race of the icon they completed the the
66:29
first
66:30
the mean uh the the expectation of the
66:34
first exit time of the ball
66:36
or the for the for the stable process
66:40
generating that generates the fractional
66:42
application
66:43
and in this case they obtained that in
66:46
fact
66:47
the expectation of the first exit time
66:50
is given precisely
66:52
by this function u of x equal 1 minus
66:56
mod x squared to the power s
67:00
and which this function solves exactly
67:04
uh that this is constant
67:06
one uh in b1 the constant
67:10
c is chosen is such the way that you
67:12
have one here and you
67:14
zero in the exterior and this function
67:17
also provides
67:18
also the boundary behavior of all
67:19
solutions because
67:21
it's like the distance function to the
67:23
ball
67:24
one minus mod x
67:28
so 1
67:38
to the power s so which is the distance
67:39
function to the boundary and this is the
67:42
boundary behavior
67:44
for solutions which means one cannot
67:46
expect
67:47
in general better than this for solution
68:01
so another rigidity result that was
68:04
also approved by uh when heron cheng
68:08
and also is that in fact on the half
68:12
space
68:14
one can also classify all possible
68:17
solutions
68:19
is in the sense that if you is harmonic
68:22
is harmonic in the heart space and zero
68:25
at the boundary then
68:27
then it is proportional to it is
68:29
proportional to
68:30
x n to the power s which
68:36
is
68:38
well so you know for example if one is
68:42
looking at
68:43
the case of the laplacian this is
68:45
somehow
68:46
very it is simply uh maybe one can make
68:50
simply an odd reflection
68:54
and maybe use use
68:57
the the rigidity result on the whole
69:00
space
69:00
with spherical harmonics when you have a
69:03
growth which is not
69:04
big enough because the this growth makes
69:07
a lot of restriction
69:10
so l1f provides growth in this growth
69:13
restricts
69:14
that when you when you make use the
69:15
spherical harmonics then you have
69:17
polynomials and all these polynomials
69:19
will be killed except those that grows
69:23
below 100 l1s which means functions that
69:26
grows below 2s
69:29
and this is the reason why you have all
69:31
these restrictions
69:32
and this is the reason also why
69:35
the construct you cannot have many many
69:38
functions
69:38
however these restrictions are also
69:42
kind of very bad because
69:45
if you want to prove holder regularity
69:48
maybe or maybe the shout out theory you
69:50
need
69:51
you need ck plus alpha solution somehow
69:54
you need
69:55
you need solutions
69:58
which are infinity somehow but if you
70:01
want solutions which are c infinity but
70:03
that means those solutions will have a
70:07
type of expansion
70:09
of of polynomials of any order
70:12
and these functions are not in l 1 s so
70:15
this is really the reason why
70:17
it's on general difficult uh when you
70:20
look at con when you consider
70:22
the fractional laplacian operator
70:23
because anytime sometimes when you blow
70:25
up
70:26
you go out of the definition the domain
70:29
of definition of this
70:30
of the laplacian of the fractional
70:32
application which is dangerous
70:35
and one way to overcome this is
70:39
to differentiate all the time the
70:41
solutions or
70:42
maybe uh to use this result
70:45
of dpro uh serving and valid energy
70:49
on on functions with with polynomial
70:56
growth
71:10
so
71:12
in the case now of the neumann boundary
71:14
condition
71:15
so this is also in a classical
71:19
thing that comes also for the neumann
71:22
problem
71:23
uh for the number one problem in general
71:25
so only
71:26
i find functions which are tangent are
71:29
found functions will depend on the
71:31
original
71:31
on the horizontal directions solve would
71:34
solve the equations
71:39
and here we have the same
71:45
for the for the normal boundary
71:46
condition
71:50
exterior normal boundary condition and
71:52
we have all the horizontal
71:54
horizontal front functions here you can
71:58
see
71:58
x prime which also solves this equation
72:02
and one can check
72:04
that this is true and so a natural open
72:07
question here is that
72:09
are these the only uh the only function
72:13
is it true that these are the only
72:15
functions
72:16
that solve this problem so these
72:20
open questions is the converse
72:24
is an open it's an interesting open
72:26
question
72:27
because uh whenever once you know that
72:30
then you can carry on a nice argument
72:34
and somehow close up open problems that
72:37
i will tell
72:39
that i will explain later which
72:42
means a kind of full regularity boundary
72:45
regularity for exterior normal problem
72:48
so converse so this u is a solution so
72:51
the converse is
72:54
is open
73:04
crazy great
73:11
so the converse
73:16
i don't know what is going on
73:21
so the convert in any case is open and
73:23
uh so what is uh
73:25
what i mean here by the converse is that
73:27
suppose
73:28
that you have a solution we solve
73:32
18 then is it true that u
73:35
is of the form a x prime plus b
73:45
and there is no result about this even
73:47
in one dimension nothing so in one
73:49
dimension one could
73:50
expect one should expect constant
73:52
functions but nothing is known
73:54
about this
74:09
so further properties maybe that somehow
74:11
allows a
74:14
and which we will use we will see that
74:16
how they are important also we will see
74:18
also how they are important for the
74:20
regional fractional application
74:22
is all of these results so because many
74:25
of the things that comes for the
74:26
fractional laplacian it comes from the
74:27
region of the canal
74:29
but we have more hours to discuss this
74:32
in the coming lectures
74:34
so the wing maximum principle is
74:38
rather
74:41
easy to prove uh
74:45
that if you have uh just a function u
74:49
so which is an hs0 hs0 also can be
74:52
decreased
74:53
by uh by by
74:56
by more by can be weakened
75:00
so here so can be weakened
75:04
by considering something more
75:08
maybe can be weakened by considering
75:10
something u
75:11
is classical solution but maybe what is
75:14
simpler maybe you is the continuous
75:18
a or lower semi-continuous in omega
75:21
and in in l1
75:35
sorry for this i don't know what is
75:37
happening for the pen but anyway
75:39
so if if u is in l1 s and it is
75:41
continuous
75:42
then you also have the
75:46
you also have the solution that
75:48
continues up to the boundary of course
75:50
or lower semi continue when you also
75:53
have the weak maximum principle
76:03
and the strong maximum principle or
76:05
maybe the hope lemma
76:06
is it comes also is in the in the sense
76:09
that if
76:10
if i have if i have a solution also
76:12
which is continuous i can also weaken h
76:14
as zero and either u is equal to zero or
76:18
a
76:18
or i'm i'm larger than the distance
76:21
function to the boundary to the power s
76:24
which is the optimal regularity that we
76:27
that we mentioned before
76:35
and this is somehow hopefully about but
76:36
not here that uh
76:39
we have the hope dilemma but in the
76:41
classical theory the hopeful lemma in
76:43
fact it
76:43
tells us how that whether the function
76:45
is increasing or decreasing from the
76:47
boundary
76:48
but but you know this half lemma does
76:51
not tell that
76:52
and of course in order to reach the
76:54
gradient or maybe to see
76:57
somehow the monotonicity of you one need
77:00
further estimate
77:06
which is sometimes important to have uh
77:09
and and this is and this is an
77:11
interesting open problem in my opinion
77:13
that
77:13
even if i have you which is c1
77:17
sorry which is which is somehow
77:20
continuous up to the boundary
77:22
and c1 lock locally
77:25
c1 then if do i know the whether the
77:28
solution
77:29
is somehow monotone uh
77:32
from the boundary or not so this is uh
77:35
this is something that is i think
77:37
very important so in some cases
77:40
it's true and this is uh
77:43
this is proved uh recently uh
77:46
in the paper but for for for i would say
77:49
again functions
77:50
and this is true this is proved in the
77:52
recent paper
77:54
uh with uh with steven yaro and myself
77:58
where the wicked gradient is well
78:01
defined
78:02
and have the same sign like u of a
78:04
distance function
78:06
and in this case we have even if the
78:08
gradient blows up
78:09
at the boundary but you still have the
78:11
sign so it converts to plus infinity
78:14
but you still have a sign and this tells
78:15
about the monotonicity of the solutions
78:31
so uh i'll just stop here after this
78:34
slide
78:35
and then we start maybe uh the next
78:40
selector with the with the with the
78:42
original fracture laplacian
78:44
and perhaps will become more technical
78:46
in the proofs so these are
78:48
so these results are
78:51
known of course since many years ago
78:55
but it's very is there are modern proofs
78:58
also
78:58
in in many papers of sylvester and
79:01
in papers of russia and sarah
79:05
so which which provides interior holder
79:08
regularity
79:09
and also this is also known
79:14
since many years that in fact we have
79:17
strong solutions in the interior
79:23
but the boundary is in general very
79:25
strange
79:28
and so what is known in the
79:31
in the in the with the optimal regime so
79:34
this is recently
79:35
approved by albert angelo and uh
79:39
and and enclosed autumn is in fact that
79:42
in fact you can have if if omega so the
79:46
the optimality is respect to omega of
79:47
course because if omega is infinity
79:50
this was known from grub
79:54
and somehow if f is c alpha then you
79:58
have
79:59
the function over the different function
80:01
you see s plus
80:02
alpha and so sometimes
80:05
you can think about this that does that
80:07
this is you multiply delta
80:09
s with the cs plus alpha and you can
80:11
think about you almost
80:13
have like two s plus alpha
80:16
so uh this is so if this was open in
80:19
fact
80:20
the optimal regularity that is needed
80:23
for the boundary in order to get this
80:24
and this was resolved recently
80:26
uh by uh by by russell and sarah and
80:30
aberdeen
80:40
so this is a
80:43
result somehow of grub
80:46
uh sorry so this is sp so
80:51
this is uh
80:54
let me consider this this is not part so
80:56
this is hsp
80:58
i'm sorry here
81:03
so this is the lp theory for the
81:06
fractional application
81:07
and we are very different from w to sp
81:11
in fact there is you cannot have
81:14
uh the solution cannot be in wtft there
81:17
are contact examples
81:19
in fact the the explicit solutions for
81:21
the ball
81:22
show that you can never be you can never
81:24
have w to sp and all these results are
81:29
optimal
81:29
but except that in this case uh so the
81:33
the the regulator assumption on the
81:35
boundary
81:36
uh the optimality is still open so this
81:38
was proved by
81:40
grub uh first for omega is infinity and
81:43
group
81:43
and helmut abell for in the in the case
81:47
where
81:47
uh where you know the omega is
81:51
his holder uh is he see one better but
81:54
for some better which is not optimal
82:00
so the question that may be that we'll
82:04
ask
82:04
is what also happened in the norman case
82:06
in the norman case
82:08
what is known this is uh very recent
82:13
and so for now the only known regularity
82:16
in the norman case is that in fact the
82:18
solution is 2s minus 1 plus
82:20
alpha for some alpha positive
82:25
all the rest is open
82:28
and this is a result uh that that
82:32
is that was proved sorry
82:35
that was proved by
82:41
and several in different orders so the
82:44
the only result that you know is 2 s
82:45
minus 1 plus alpha
82:48
and of course one should expect more
82:50
than this
82:51
in my opinion because but this will come
82:55
when one can prove the rigidity result
83:00
namely the classification of the
83:03
solutions in the heart space
83:05
then i think that would be a very good
83:06
step in order to see
83:09
that one should in fact obtain
83:13
more than 2 s minus 1 plus alpha this is
83:16
really not optimal
83:22
and so the the natural questions that we
83:25
should
83:25
that we are going to ask and that we
83:28
will discuss
83:30
are uh whether
83:33
these results are true
83:38
for the original fractional laplacians
83:40
or
83:43
as we will see you will see that in fact
83:45
there are
83:46
almost no results very very few maybe
83:49
two papers
83:50
dealing with the boundary regulator for
83:52
original fractional laplacian
83:54
and these are the papers these are the
83:56
results that i'm going to talk about
83:59
in the in the coming in the coming
84:01
lectures
84:02
uh and perhaps we will be a bit more
84:05
technical in the
84:06
and then and and talk about a little bit
84:08
the proofs
84:10
not deeply of course but we'll just
84:12
sketch some proofs
84:14
but in any case what we want is will be
84:17
that to discuss about what will happen
84:20
in the case
84:21
where we replace the fractional
84:23
laplacian
84:24
with the original fractional laplacian
84:27
so
84:27
uh i will probably stop here for today
84:32
and maybe leave the remaining
84:35
time for discussions
84:41
okay thank you professor faux for the
84:44
very interesting
84:45
lecture uh
84:48
some questions or comments
84:56
may i ask one one question again hey
84:59
there is this this no my question is
85:01
about w2
85:03
calculus regularity i mean lovely just
85:06
just
85:06
w2 something so my question is there is
85:09
this paper by
85:10
by who you from from columbia
85:13
and i think the paper the the the the
85:16
results some sort of
85:17
fun falling estimate for
85:20
for non-local problems so my question is
85:24
is definitely is there any clear
85:27
uh bottleneck or clear obstacle
85:31
to move from this w to
85:34
delta to something like w two
85:38
b or w to d or something like this
85:41
as as in the usual in the usual uh w to
85:45
p
85:45
calculate theory
85:49
yes in fact there is a kind of w
85:52
i would say tp
85:55
regularity of course uh
85:58
up so tp omega itself uh
86:02
but with t with t so so one one
86:05
one is now what knows is for example if
86:08
f is in
86:08
l2 uh then you are in somehow h
86:14
or maybe w is the same because
86:18
it's
86:21
s plus one half
86:25
minus epsilon two
86:32
so one s plus one half minus epsilon
86:36
omega so in a sense and this is the
86:40
one-half minus epsilon is kind of
86:43
optimal
86:44
because uh because of the yeah because
86:47
of the
86:48
explicit solution so that you can get
86:50
when you consider a ball
86:54
okay let's see did i answer question
86:58
yes yes okay
87:01
thank you some more questions or
87:04
comments
87:06
uh i have one is maybe it's naive but
87:10
uh the the solution
87:15
you talk about uh weak solution
87:19
but all the results uh hold
87:22
or viscose solution all the the results
87:25
that you talked
87:27
yes of course many of them are true for
87:30
viscosity solutions for instance
87:32
i think even ross orton sarah for them
87:35
they use
87:36
this projective solutions graph doesn't
87:39
use viscosity solutions
87:41
so it depends it depends on on the
87:44
others
87:45
but in fact i think one interesting
87:47
question which is some
87:48
studied i think by uh by bukur
87:52
and quarter if to go uh sometimes
87:56
when you have this positive solution is
87:58
it resolution and things
87:59
like that so moving from this positive
88:01
or weak solutions
88:03
but for example but the proof
88:08
the results in fact in general works for
88:10
both of them
88:11
but it depends for some from other to
88:13
author someday just completely consider
88:15
viscosity solution
88:17
okay okay thank you a summary comment or
88:21
question
88:25
okay then then uh we met again
88:29
a wednesday wednesday uh at night
88:32
thank you professor paul see you later
88:35
at nine twelve in our case about nine
88:38
plus three
88:40
yeah yeah
88:43
my
