 Welcome! This is the Nonlocal Equations Wiki (67 articles and counting)

In this wiki we collect several results about nonlocal elliptic and parabolic equations. If you want to know what a nonlocal equation refers to, a good starting point would be the Intro to nonlocal equations. If you want to find information on a specific topic, you may want to check the list of equations or use the search option on the left.

We also keep a list of open problems and of upcoming events.

The wiki has an assumed bias towards regularity results and consequently to equations for which some regularization occurs. But we also include some topics which are tangentially related, or even completely unrelated, to regularity.
