Nonradiality of second eigenfunctions of the fractional Laplacian in a ball
Abstract
Using symmetrization techniques, we show that, for every N ≥ 2, any second eigenfunction of the fractional Laplacian in the N-dimensional unit ball with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions is nonradial, and hence its nodal set is an equatorial section of the ball.
