Fractional gradients and nonlocal PDEs in variable exponent spaces
Abstract
We develop a theory of distributional Riesz fractional gradients in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces and introduce the associated nonlocal Sobolev spaces. Moreover, Sobolev, Hardy, Morrey, and Trudinger-type inequalities are established, and a fractional fundamental theorem of calculus is derived. As an application, we study nonlinear variational problems with nonstandard growth and establish existence and Euler--Lagrange equations for minimizers.
