Some results on the eigenvalue problem for a fractional elliptic equation
Abstract This paper deals with the eigenvalue problem for a fractional variable coefficients elliptic equation defined on a bounded domain. Compared to the previous work, we prove a quite different variational formulation of the first eigenvalue for the above problem. This allows us to give a variat...

Summary: | Abstract This paper deals with the eigenvalue problem for a fractional variable coefficients elliptic equation defined on a bounded domain. Compared to the previous work, we prove a quite different variational formulation of the first eigenvalue for the above problem. This allows us to give a variational proof of the fractional Faber–Krahn inequality by employing suitable rearrangement techniques. |
