Abstract: We prove nonexistence of nontrivial bounded solutions to some nonlinear problems involving nonlocal operators of the form [Lu(x)=sum a_{ij}partial_{ij}u+{ m PV}int_{R^n}(u(x)-u(x+y))K(y)dy.] These operators are infinitesimal generators of symmetric L'evy processes. Our results apply to even kernels K satisfying that K(y)|y|n+sigma is nondecreasing along rays from the origin, for some sigmain(0,2) in case aijequiv0 and for sigma=2 in case that (aij) is a positive definite symmetric matrix. Our nonexistence results concern Dirichlet problems for L in star-shaped domains with critical and supercritical nonlinearities (where the criticality condition is in relation to n and sigma). We also establish nonexistence of bounded solutions to semilinear equations involving other nonlocal operators such as the higher order fractional Laplacian (Delta)s (here s>1) or the fractional p-Laplacian. All these nonexistence results follow from a general variational inequality in the spirit of a classical identity by Pucci and Serrin.
