Abstract

Although at least ten equivalent definitions of the fractional Laplacian exist in unbounded domains, we introduce an additional equivalent definition based on the generalized spherical mean-value operator—a Fourier multiplier operator involving the normalized Bessel function. Specifically, we demonstrate that this new definition allows us to reduce any n-dimensional fractional Laplacian to a one-dimensional operator, which simplifies computation and enhances efficiency. We propose two methods for computing the generalized spherical means of a given function: one by solving standard wave equations and the other by solving Darboux’s equations.
