Nonlocal diffusion and applications

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider the fractional Laplace framework and provide models and theorems related to nonlocal diffusion phenomena. Some applications are presented, including: a simple probabilistic interpretation, water waves, crystal dislocations, nonlocal phase transitions, nonlocal minimal surfaces and Schr"{o}dinger equations. Furthermore, an example of an s-harmonic function, the harmonic extension and some insight on a fractional version of a classical conjecture formulated by De Giorgi are presented. Although this book aims at gathering some introductory material on the applications of the fractional Laplacian, some proofs and results are original. Also, the work is self contained, and the reader is invited to consult the rich bibliography for further details, whenever a subject is of interest.
