Uniqueness for local-nonlocal elliptic equations

Abstract

We study mixed local and nonlocal elliptic equation with a variable coefficient $\rho$. Under suitable assumptions on the behaviour at infinity of $\rho$, we obtain uniqueness of solutions belonging to certain weighted Lebsgue spaces, with a weight depending on the coefficient $\rho$. The hypothesis on $\rho$ is optimal; indeed, when it fails we get nonuniqueness of solutions. We also investigate the parabolic counterpart of such equation.
