THE RADIAL SYMMETRY OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR SEMILINEAR PROBLEMS INVOLVING WEIGHTED FRACTIONAL LAPLACIANS

This paper deals with the radial symmetry of positive solutions to the nonlocal problem(-Δ)_(γ)~su=b(x)f(u)in B_(1){0},u=h in R~N B_(1),where b:B_1→R is locally Holder continuous,radially symmetric and decreasing in the|x|direction,F:R→R is a Lipschitz function,h:B_1→R is radially symmetric,decreasing with respect to|x|in R^(N)/B_(1),B_(1) is the unit ball centered at the origin,and(-Δ)_γ~s is the weighted fractional Laplacian with s∈(0,1),γ∈[0,2s)defined by(-△)^(s)_(γ)u(x)=CN,slimδ→0+∫R^(N)/B_(δ)(x)u(x)-u(y)/|x-y|N+2s|y|^(r)dy.We consider the radial symmetry of isolated singular positive solutions to the nonlocal problem in whole space(-Δ)_(γ)^(s)u(x)=b(x)f(u)in R^(N)\{0},under suitable additional assumptions on b and f.Our symmetry results are derived by the method of moving planes,where the main difficulty comes from the weighted fractional Laplacian.Our results could be applied to get a sharp asymptotic for semilinear problems with the fractional Hardy operators(-Δ)^(s)u+μ/(|x|^(2s))u=b(x)f(u)in B_(1)\{0},u=h in R^(N)\B_(1),under suitable additional assumptions on b,f and h.

These systems were categorized critical and subcritical cases. We show that there is no positive solution in the subcritical cases, and we classify all positive solutions ui in the critical cases by using a direct method of moving planes introduced in Chen-Li-Li [11] and some new maximum principles in Li-Wu-Xu [27].

NONEXISTENCE OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR A SEMI-LINEAR EQUATION INVOLVING THE FRACTIONAL LAPLACIAN IN R^N

In this paper, we consider the semilinear equation involving the fractional Laplacian in the Euclidian space R^n：（-△）^α/2u（x） ： f（xn）u^p（x）, x ∈R^n（0.1）in the subcritical case with 1〈 p〈n＋a/n-a.Instead of carrying out direct investigations on pseudo-differential equation （0.1）, we first seek its equivalent form in an integral equation as below：u（x）=∫R^nG∞（x, y） f（yn） u^p（y）dy,where G∞（x, y） is the Green＇s function associated with the fractional Laplacian in R^n. Employing the method of moving planes in integral forms, we are able to derive the nonexistence of positive solutions for （0.2） in the subcritical case. Thanks to the equivalence, same con- clusion is true for （0.1）.

CLASSIFICATION OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS TO ASYSTEM OF HARDY-SOBOLEV TYPE EQUATIONS

In this paper, we are concerned with the following Hardy-Sobolev type system{(-?)^(α/2) u(x) =v^q(x)/|y|^(t_2) (-?)α/2 v(x) =u^p(x)/|y|^(t_1),x =(y, z) ∈(R ~k\{0}) × R^(n-k),(0.1)where 0 < α < n, 0 < t_1, t_2 < min{α, k}, and 1 < p ≤ τ_1 :=(n+α-2t_1)/( n-α), 1 < q ≤ τ_2 :=(n+α-2 t_2)/( n-α).We first establish the equivalence of classical and weak solutions between PDE system(0.1)and the following integral equations(IE) system{u(x) =∫_( R^n) G_α(x, ξ)v^q(ξ)/|η|t^2 dξ v(x) =∫_(R^n) G_α(x, ξ)(u^p(ξ))/|η|^(t_1) dξ,(0.2)where Gα(x, ξ) =(c n,α)/(|x-ξ|^(n-α))is the Green's function of(-?)^(α/2) in R^n. Then, by the method of moving planes in the integral forms, in the critical case p = τ_1 and q = τ_2, we prove that each pair of nonnegative solutions(u, v) of(0.1) is radially symmetric and monotone decreasing about the origin in R^k and some point z0 in R^(n-k). In the subcritical case (n-t_1)/(p+1)+(n-t_2)/(q+1)> n-α,1 < p ≤ τ_1 and 1 < q ≤ τ_2, we derive the nonexistence of nontrivial nonnegative solutions for(0.1).

When K is strictly decreasing with respect to ｜x＇｜, the symmetry of positive solutions is proved, where x＇ = （x1, x2,…, xn-1） ∈Rn- 1. When K is strictly increasing with respect to xn or only depend on xn, the nonexistence of positive solutions is obtained.

We discuss the properties of solutions for the following elliptic partial differential equations system in Rn,where 0 〈α〈 n, pi and qi （i = 1, 2） satisfy some suitable assumptions. Due to equivalence between the PDEs system and a given integral system, we prove the radial symmetry and regularity of positive solutions to the PDEs system via the method of moving plane in integral forms and Regularity Lifting Lemma. For the special case, when p1 ＋ p2= q1 ＋ q2 = n＋α/n-α, we classify the solutions of the PDEs system.
