On the asymptotic analysis of problems involving fractional Laplacian in cylindrical domains tending to infinity

The paper is an attempt to investigate the issues of asymptotic analysis for problems involving fractional Laplacian where the domains tend to become unbounded in one-direction. Motivated from the pioneering work on second-order elliptic problems by Chipot and Rougirel in [On the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of elliptic problems in cylindrical domains becoming unbounded, Commun. Contemp. Math. 4(1) (2002) 15–44], where the force functions are considered on the cross-section of domains, we prove the non-local counterpart of their result. Recently in [Asymptotic behavior of elliptic nonlocal equations set in cylinders, Asymptot. Anal. 89(1–2) (2014) 21–35] Yeressian established a weighted estimate for solutions of non-local Dirichlet problems which exhibit the asymptotic behavior. The case when [Formula: see text] was also treated as an example to show how the weighted estimate might be used to achieve the asymptotic behavior. In this paper, we extend this result to each order between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].
