Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a direct method of moving spheres for the nonlocal fractional Laplacian (−riangle)alpha/2 for 0<alpha<2, in which a key ingredient is the narrow region maximum principle. As immediate applications, we classify the non-negative solutions for a semilinear equation involving the fractional Laplacian in mathbbRn; we prove a non-existence result for prescribing Qalpha curvature equation on mathbbSn; then by combining the direct method of moving planes and moving spheres, we establish a Liouville type theorem on the half Euclidean space. We expect to see more applications of this method to many other equations involving non-local operators.
