We give a representation for regular forms associated with dominated $C_0$-semigroups which, in turn, characterises domination of $C_0$-semigroups associated with regular forms. In addition, we prove a relationship between the positivity of (dominated) $C_0$-semigroups and the locality of the associated forms.
The overreaching goal of this paper is to investigate the existence and uniqueness of weak solution of a semilinear parabolic equation with double nonlocality in space and in time variables that naturally arises while modeling a biological nano-sensor in the chaotic dynamics of a polymer chain. In fact, the problem under consideration involves a symmetric integrodifferential operator of Lévy type and a term called the interaction potential, that depends on the time-integral of the solution over the entire interval of solving the problem. Owing to the Galerkin approximation, the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution of the nonlocal complement value problem is proven for small time under fair conditions on the interaction potential.
We consider parabolic equations on bounded smooth open sets $\Om\subset \R^N$ ($N\ge 1$) with mixed Dirichlet type boundary-exterior conditions associated with the elliptic operator $\mathscr{L} \coloneqq - Δ+ (-Δ)^{s}$ ($0<s<1$). Firstly, we prove several well-posedness and regularity results of the associated elliptic and parabolic problems with smooth, and then with singular boundary-exterior data. Secondly, we show the existence of optimal solutions of associated optimal control problems, and we characterize the optimality conditions. This is the first time that such topics have been presented and studied in a unified fashion for mixed local-nonlocal PDEs with singular data.
Many different types of fractional calculus have been proposed, which can be organised into some general classes of operators. For a unified mathematical theory, results should be proved in the most general possible setting. Two important classes of fractional-calculus operators are the fractional integrals and derivatives with respect to functions (dating back to the 1970s) and those with general analytic kernels (introduced in 2019). To cover both of these settings in a single study, we can consider fractional integrals and derivatives with analytic kernels with respect to functions, which have never been studied in detail before. Here we establish the basic properties of these general operators, including series formulae, composition relations, function spaces, and Laplace transforms. The tools of convergent series, from fractional calculus with analytic kernels, and of operational calculus, from fractional calculus with respect to functions, are essential ingredients in the analysis of the general class that covers both.
Starting from a recent result expressing the Lerch zeta function as a fractional derivative, we consider further fractional derivatives of the Lerch zeta function with respect to different variables. We establish a partial differential equation, involving an infinite series of fractional derivatives, which is satisfied by the Lerch zeta function.
We consider nonlinear nonlocal diffusive evolution equations, governed by fractional Laplace-type operators, fractional time derivative and involving porous medium type nonlinearities. Existence and uniqueness of weak solutions are established using approximating solutions and the theory of maximal monotone operators. Using the De Giorgi-Nash-Moser technique, we prove that the solutions are bounded and Hölder continuous for all positive time.
