    Bifurcation results for a fractional elliptic equation with critical exponent in Rn
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Dipierro, Serena; Medina, Maria; Peral, Ireneo; Valdinoci, Enrico
    In this paper we study some nonlinear elliptic equations obtained as a perturbation of the problem with the fractional critical Sobolev exponent. To construct solutions to this equation, we use the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, that takes advantage of the variational structure of the problem. Some cases of the parameter range are particularly difficult, due to the lack of regularity of the associated energy functional, and we need to introduce a new functional setting and develop an appropriate fractional elliptic regularity theory.

    Fractional elliptic problems with critical growth in the whole of Rn
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2015) Dipierro, Serena; Medina, María; Valdinoci, Enrico
    We study a nonlinear and nonlocal elliptic equation. The problem has a variational structure, and this allows us to find a positive solution by looking at critical points of a suitable energy functional. In particular, in this paper, we find a local minimum and a mountain pass solution of this functional. One of the crucial ingredient is a Concentration-Compactness principle. Some difficulties arise from the nonlocal structure of the problem and from the fact that we deal with an equation in the whole of the space (and this causes lack of compactness of some embeddings). We overcome these difficulties by looking at an equivalent extended problem.
