Abstract: We describe a new interpretation of the fractional GJMS operators as generalized Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators associated to weighted GJMS operators on naturally associated smooth metric measure spaces. This gives a geometric interpretation of the Caffarelli--Silvestre extension for $(-Delta{)}^{g}amma$ when $gammain(0,1)$, and both a geometric interpretation and a curved analogue of the higher order extension found by R. Yang for $(-Delta{)}^{g}amma$ when $gamma>1$. We give three applications of this correspondence. First, we exhibit some energy identities for the fractional GJMS operators in terms of energies in the compactified Poincar'e--Einstein manifold, including an interpretation as a renormalized energy. Second, for $gammain(1,2)$, we show that if the scalar curvature and the fractional $Q$-curvature $Q_{2gamma}$ of the boundary are nonnegative, then the fractional GJMS operator $P_{2gamma}$ is nonnegative. Third, by assuming additionally that $Q_{2gamma}$ is not identically zero, we show that $P_{2gamma}$ satisfies a strong maximum principle.
