Mathematical properties of the Weertman equation

Abstract

We derive here some mathematical properties of the Weertman equation and show it is the limit of an evolution equation. The Weertman equation is a semilinear integrodifferential equation involving a fractional Laplacian. In addition to this purely theoretical interest, the results proven here give a solid ground to a numerical approach that we have implemented (see arXiv:1704.04489).
