We study the existence of a weak solution of a nonlocal problem$$\begin{eqnarray}\displaystyle & \displaystyle -{\mathcal{L}}_{K}u-\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}ug_{1}+h(u)g_{2}=f\quad \text{in }\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}, & \displaystyle \nonumber\\ \displaystyle & \displaystyle u=0\quad \text{in }\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus \unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}, & \displaystyle \nonumber\end{eqnarray}$$where${\mathcal{L}}_{k}$is a general nonlocal integrodifferential operator of fractional type,$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$is a real parameter and$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$is an open bounded subset of$\mathbb{R}^{n}$($n>2s$, where$s\in (0,1)$is fixed) with Lipschitz boundary$\unicode[STIX]{x2202}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$. Here$f,g_{1},g_{2}:\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$and$h:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$are functions satisfying suitable hypotheses.

In this paper, we are concerned with the following Dirichlet problem for nonlinear equations involving the fractional [Formula: see text]-Laplacian: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a bounded or an unbounded domain which is convex in [Formula: see text]-direction, and [Formula: see text] is the fractional [Formula: see text]-Laplacian operator defined by [Formula: see text] Under some mild assumptions on the nonlinearity [Formula: see text], we establish the monotonicity and symmetry of positive solutions to the nonlinear equations involving the fractional [Formula: see text]-Laplacian in both bounded and unbounded domains. Our results are extensions of Chen and Li [Maximum principles for the fractional p-Laplacian and symmetry of solutions, Adv. Math. 335 (2018) 735–758] and Cheng et al. [The maximum principles for fractional Laplacian equations and their applications, Commun. Contemp. Math. 19(6) (2017) 1750018].

This paper is devoted to investigate the symmetry and monotonicity properties for positive solutions of fractional Laplacian equations. Especially, we consider the following fractional Laplacian equation with homogeneous Dirichlet condition: [Formula: see text] Here [Formula: see text] is a domain (bounded or unbounded) in [Formula: see text] which is convex in [Formula: see text]-direction. [Formula: see text] is the nonlocal fractional Laplacian operator which is defined as [Formula: see text] Under various conditions on [Formula: see text] and on a solution [Formula: see text] it is shown that [Formula: see text] is strictly increasing in [Formula: see text] in the left half of [Formula: see text], or in [Formula: see text]. Symmetry (in [Formula: see text]) of some solutions is proved.

Abstract In this work, we study the existence of a positive solution to an elliptic equation involving the fractional Laplacian (−Δ) s in ℝ n , for n ≥ 2, such as (0.1) ( − Δ ) s u + E ( x ) u + V ( x ) u q − 1 = K ( x ) f ( u ) + u 2 s ⋆ − 1 . $$(-\Delta)^{s} u+E(x) u+V(x) u^{q-1}=K(x) f(u)+u^{2_{s}^{\star}-1}.$$ Here, s ∈ (0, 1), q ∈ 2 , 2 s ⋆ $q \in\left[2,2_{s}^{\star}\right)$ with 2 s ⋆ := 2 n n − 2 s $2_{s}^{\star}:=\frac{2 n}{n-2 s}$ being the fractional critical Sobolev exponent, E(x), K(x), V(x) > 0 : ℝ n → ℝ are measurable functions which satisfy joint “vanishing at infinity” conditions in a measure-theoretic sense, and f (u) is a continuous function on ℝ of quasi-critical, super-q-linear growth with f (u) ≥ 0 if u ≥ 0. Besides, we study the existence of multiple positive solutions to an elliptic equation in ℝ n such as (0.2) ( − Δ ) s u + E ( x ) u + V ( x ) u q − 1 = λ K ( x ) u r − 1 , $$(-\Delta)^{s} u+E(x) u+V(x) u^{q-1}=\lambda K(x) u^{r-1},$$ where 2 < r < q < ∞(both possibly (super-)critical), E(x), K(x), V(x) > 0 : ℝ n → ℝ are measurable functions satisfying joint integrability conditions, and λ > 0 is a parameter. To study (0.1)-(0.2), we first describe a family of general fractional Sobolev-Slobodeckij spaces Ms ;q,p (ℝ n ) as well as their associated compact embedding results.
