Abstract: The use of the fractional Laplacian in image denoising and regularization of inverse problems has enjoyed a recent surge in popularity, since for discontinuous functions it can behave less aggressively than methods based on $H^1$ norms, while being linear and computable with fast spectral numerical methods. In this work, we examine denoising and linear inverse problems regularized with fractional Laplacian in the vanishing noise and regularization parameter regime. The clean data is assumed piecewise constant in the first case, and continuous and satisfying a source condition in the second. In these settings, we prove results of convergence of level set boundaries with respect to Hausdorff distance, and additionally convergence rates in the case of denoising and indicatrix clean data. The main technical tool for this purpose is a family of barriers constructed by Savin and Valdinoci for studying the fractional Allen-Cahn equation. To help put these fractional methods in context, comparisons with the total variation and classical Laplacian are provided throughout.
