Abstract: We study boundary regularity for solutions to a class of equations involving the so called regional fractional Lapacians $(-Delta{)}_O^{s}mega$, with $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^N$. Recall that the regional fractional Laplacians are generated by symmetric stable processes which are not allowed to jump outside $Omega$. We consider weak solutions to the equation $(-Delta{)}_O^{s}megaw(x)=p.v.in{t}_{Omega}fracw(x)-w(y)|x-y{|}^{N+2s},dy=f(x)$, for $sin(0,1)$, subject to zero Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions. The boundary conditions are defined by considering $w$ as well as the test functions in the fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s(Omega)$ or $H_0^s(Omega)$ respectively. While the interior regularity is well understood for these problems, little is known in the boundary regularity, mainly for the Neumann problem. Under optimal regularity assumptions on $Omega$ and provided $fin{L}^p(Omega)$, we show that $win{C}^{2s-N/p}(overlineOmega)$ in the case of zero Neumann boundary conditions. As a consequence for $2s-N/p>1$, $win{C}^{1,2s-fracNp-1}(overlineOmega)$. As what concerned the Dirichlet problem, we obtain $w/delt{a}^{2s-1}in{C}^{1-N/p}(overlineOmega)$, provided $p>N$ and $sin(1/2,1)$, where $delta(x)=extrmdist(x,partialOmega)$. To prove these results, we first classify all solutions having a certain growth at infinity when $Omega$ is a half-space and the right hand side is zero. We then carry over a fine blow up and some compactness arguments to get the results.
