This allows to get sharp estimates for the solutions, obtained by comparing them with solutions of suitable radial problems. Furthermore, we use such result to prove a priori estimates for solutions in terms of the data, providing several regularity results which extend the well known ones for the classical Laplacian.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2012-01-03T13:02:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35R11", "35B45", "15A15" ], "keywords": [ "fractional laplacian", "regularity results", "symmetrization methods", "boundary value problems", "comparison result" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1016/j.jde.2012.07.004", "journal": "Journal of Differential Equations", "year": 2012, "volume": 253, "number": 9, "pages": 2593 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012JDE...253.2593D" } } }
