A generalized fractional Pohozaev identity and applications

Abstract

We prove a fractional Pohozaev type identity in a generalized framework and discuss its applications. Specifically, we shall consider applications to nonexistence of solutions in the case of supercritical semilinear Dirichlet problems and regarding a Hadamard formula for the derivative of Dirichlet eigenvalues of the fractional Laplacian with respect to domain deformations. We also derive the simplicity of radial eigenvalues in the case of radial bounded domains and apply the Hadamard formula to this case.
