Fractional Lane-Emden Hamiltonian systems

Abstract

In this work, our interest lies in proving the existence of solutions to the following Fractional Lane-Emden Hamiltonian system: $$ \begin{cases} (-\Delta)^s u = H_v(x,u,v) & \text{in }\Omega,\\ (-\Delta)^s v = H_u(x,u,v) & \text{in }\Omega,\\ u=v=0 & \text{in } \R^n\setminus\Omega. \end{cases} $$ The method, that can be traced back to the work of De Figueiredo and Felmer \cite{DF-F}, is flexible enough to deal with more general nonlocal operators and make use of a combination of fractional order Sobolev spaces together with functional calculus for self-adjoint operators.
