Regularity in \(L_{p}\) Sobolev spaces of solutions to fractional heat equations (Q1706639)

The authors consider the equation \[ Pu+\partial_{t}u=f(x,t),\;\;x\in \Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^{n}, \] where the operator \(P\) is a strongly elliptic pseudodifferential operators on \({\mathbb R}^{n}\) of order \(d\in {\mathbb R}^{+}\). First, sharp solvability results are established in Bessel potential and Besov spaces in the case of \(\Omega= {\mathbb R}^{n}\). Local smoothness properties are also described. Second, existence and uniqueness theorems are proven in the particular case of the operator \(P=(-\Delta)^{\alpha}\). The operator \(\Delta\) is defined in a bounded domain \(\Omega\) with smooth boundary and its domain contains function satisfying the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Interior smoothness properties of solutions are also exposed.
