Almost minimizers for certain fractional variational problems

Abstract

In this paper we introduce a notion of almost minimizers for certain variational problems governed by the fractional Laplacian, with the help of the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension. In particular, we study almost fractional harmonic functions and almost minimizers for the fractional obstacle problem with zero obstacle. We show that for a certain range of parameters, almost minimizers are almost Lipschitz or $C^{1,\beta }$-regular.
