On some degenerate non-local parabolic equation associated with the fractional $p$-Laplacian

We consider a degenerate parabolic equation associated with the fractional $% p $-Laplace operator $\left( -Δ\right) _{p}^{s}$\ ($p\geq 2$, $s\in \left( 0,1\right) $) and a monotone perturbation growing like $\left\vert s\right\vert ^{q-2}s,$ $q>p$ and with bad sign at infinity as $\left\vert s\right\vert \rightarrow \infty $. We show the existence of locally-defined strong solutions to the problem with any initial condition $u_{0}\in L^{r}(Ω)$ where $r\geq 2$ satisfies $r>N(q-p)/sp$. Then, we prove that finite time blow-up is possible for these problems in the range of parameters provided for $r,p,q$ and the initial datum $u_0$.

A note on semilinear fractional elliptic equation: analysis and discretization

In this paper we study existence, regularity, and approximation of solution to a fractional semilinear elliptic equation of order $s \in (0,1)$. We identify minimal conditions on the nonlinear term and the source which leads to existence of weak solutions and uniform $L^\infty$-bound on the solutions. Next we realize the fractional Laplacian as a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map via the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension. We introduce a first-degree tensor product finite elements space to approximate the truncated problem. We derive a priori error estimates and conclude with an illustrative numerical example.

Transmission problems with nonlocal boundary conditions and rough dynamic interfaces

We consider a transmission problem consisting of a semilinear parabolic equation in a general non-smooth setting with emphasis on rough interfaces which bear a fractal-like geometry and nonlinear dynamic (possibly, nonlocal)\ boundary conditions along the interface. We give a unified framework for existence of strong solutions, existence of finite dimensional attractors and blow-up phenomena for solutions under general conditions on the bulk and interfacial nonlinearities with competing behavior at infinity.

Long-term behavior of reaction-diffusion equations with nonlocal boundary conditions on rough domains

We investigate the long term behavior in terms of finite dimensional global and exponential attractors, as time goes to infinity, of solutions to a semilinear reaction-diffusion equation on non-smooth domains subject to nonlocal Robin boundary conditions, characterized by the presence of fractional diffusion on the boundary. Our results are of general character and apply to a large class of irregular domains, including domains whose boundary is Holder continuous and domains which have fractal-like geometry. In addition to recovering most of the existing results on existence, regularity, uniqueness, stability, attractor existence, and dimension, for the well-known reaction-diffusion equation in smooth domains, the framework we develop also makes possible a number of new results for all diffusion models in other non-smooth settings.

Nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems at resonance with nonlinear Wentzell boundary conditions

In the first part of the article, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of a class of nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems with nonlinear boundary conditions involving the q-Laplace-Beltrami operator. In the second part, we give some additional results on existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence estimates of the weak solutions for these classes of nonlinear problems. Finally, we show that these solutions are also bounded and provide explicit estimates.
