We prove Sobolev regularity for distributional solutions to the Dirichlet problem for generators of 2s-stable processes and exterior data, inhomogeneity in weighted $$L^2$$ L 2 -spaces. This class of operators includes the fractional Laplacian. For these rough exterior data the theory of weak variational solutions is not applicable. Our regularity estimate is robust in the limit $$s\rightarrow 1-$$ s → 1 - which allows us to recover the local theory.

Let $$u_{s}$$ u s denote a solution of the fractional Poisson problem $$\begin{aligned} (-\Delta )^{s} u_{s} = f\quad \text { in }\Omega ,\qquad u_{s}=0\quad \text { on }{\mathbb {R}}^{N}\setminus \Omega , \end{aligned}$$ ( - Δ ) s u s = f in Ω , u s = 0 on R N \ Ω , where $$N\ge 2$$ N ≥ 2 and $$\Omega \subset {\mathbb {R}}^{N}$$ Ω ⊂ R N is a bounded domain of class $$C^{2}$$ C 2 . We show that the solution mapping $$s\mapsto u_{s}$$ s ↦ u s is differentiable in $$L^\infty (\Omega )$$ L ∞ ( Ω ) at s = 1, namely, at the nonlocal-to-local transition. Moreover, using the logarithmic Laplacian, we characterize the derivative $$\partial _{s} u_{s}$$ ∂ s u s as the solution to a boundary value problem. This complements the previously known differentiability results for s in the open interval (0, 1). Our proofs are based on an asymptotic analysis to describe the collapse of the nonlocality of the fractional Laplacian as s approaches 1. We also provide a new representation of $$\partial _{s} u_{s}$$ ∂ s u s for s$$\in (0,1)$$ ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) which allows us to refine previously obtained Green function estimates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
