Nonlocal Trace Spaces and Extension Results for Nonlocal Calculus

arXiv:2107.00177

For a given Lipschitz domain Ω, it is a classical result that the trace space of W1,p(Ω) is W1−1/p,p(∂Ω), namely any W1,p(Ω) function has a well-defined W1−1/p,p(∂Ω) trace on its codimension-1 boundary ∂Ω and any W1−1/p,p(∂Ω) function on ∂Ω can be extended to a W1,p(Ω) function. Recently, Dyda and Kassmann (2019) characterize the trace space for nonlocal Dirichlet problems involving integrodifferential operators with infinite interaction ranges, where the boundary datum is provided on the whole complement of the given domain ℝd∖Ω.

Existence and regularity of minimizers for nonlocal energy functionals

Differential and Integral Equations

In this paper, we consider minimizers for nonlocal energy functionals generalizing elastic energies that are connected with the theory of peridynamics [19] or nonlocal diffusion models [1]. We derive nonlocal versions of the Euler-Lagrange equations under two sets of growth assumptions for the integrand. Existence of minimizers is shown for integrands with joint convexity (in the function and nonlocal gradient components). By using the convolution structure, we show regularity of solutions for certain Euler-Lagrange equations.
