Resumen de Oscillatory phenomena for higher-order fractional Laplacians

Nicola Abatangelo, Sven Jarohs

• We collect some peculiarities of higher-order fractional Laplacians (−∆)s , s > 1, with special attention to the range s ∈ (1, 2), which show their oscillatory nature. These include the failure of the polarization and P´olya–Szeg˝o inequalities and the explicit example of a domain with sign-changing first eigenfunction. In spite of these fluctuating behaviours, we prove how the Faber–Krahn inequality still holds for any s > 1 in dimension one.
