Title: Nonexitence of nontrivial solutions to Dirichlet problems for the fractional Laplacian Authors: Jose Carmona (Univ. de Almeria, Spain) Alexis Molino (Univ. de Almeria, Spain) Abstract: In this article we prove that there are no nontrivial solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the fractional Laplacian $$\displaylines{ (-\Delta)^s u =f(u) \quad \text{in }\Omega,\cr u=0 \quad \text{in } \mathbb{R}^N \backslash \Omega, }$$ where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ (N≥ 1) is a bounded domain, and f is locally Lipschitz with non-positive primitive $F(t)= \int_0^t f(\tau)d\tau$.
