Abstract

We discuss the Hölder regularity of solutions to the semilinear equation involving the fractional Laplacian (-Δ)s u=f(u) in one dimension. We put in evidence a new regularity phenomenon which is a combined effect of the nonlocality and the semilinearity of the equation, since it does not happen neither for local semilinear equations, nor for nonlocal linear equations. Namely, for nonlinearities f in Cβ and when 2s+β<1, the solution is not always C2s+β-ε for all ε>0. Instead, in general the solution u is at most C2s/(1-β).
