Abstract

In this paper, we study existence of boundary blow-up solutions for elliptic equations involving regional fractional Laplacian:\begin{gather}(-\Delta)^{\alpha}_{\Omega} u+f(u) = 0 & \textrm{in} & \Omega \\u = + \infty & \textrm{on} & \partial \Omega ,\end{gather}where $\Omega$ is a bounded open domain in $\mathbb{R}^N (N \geq 2)$ with $C^2$ boundary $\partial \Omega , \alpha \in (0,1)$ and the operator $(-\Delta)^\alpha_\Omega$ is the regional fractional Laplacian. When $f$ is a nondecreasing continuous function satisfying $f(0) \geq 0$ and some additional conditions, we address the existence and nonexistence of solutions for this problem. Moreover, we further analyze the asymptotic behavior of solutions to it.
