An extension procedure leads us to study a degenerate or singular equation on a cylinder, with a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition on the lateral surface and a non homogeneous Neumann condition on the basis. For the extended problem, by an Almgren-type monotonicity formula and a blow-up analysis, we classify the local asymptotic profiles at the edge where the transition between boundary conditions occurs. Passing to traces, an analogous blow-up result and its consequent strong unique continuation property is deduced for the nonlocal fractional equation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-01-27T12:19:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35R11", "35B40", "31B25" ], "keywords": [ "spectral fractional laplacian", "consequent strong unique continuation property", "nonlocal fractional equation", "boundary conditions occurs", "local asymptotic profiles" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
