THE MAXIMUM PRINCIPLE FOR THE EQUATION OF LOCAL FLUCTUATIONS OF RIESZ GRAVITATIONAL FIELDS OF PURELY FRACTIONAL ORDER

The parabolic pseudodifferential equation with the Riesz fractional differentiation operator of α ∈ (0; 1) order, which acts on a spatial variable, is considered in the paper. This equation naturally summarizes the known equation of fractal diffusion of purely fractional order. It arises in the mathematical modeling of local vortices of nonstationary Riesz gravitational fields caused by moving objects, the interaction between the masses of which is characterized by the corresponding Riesz potential. The fundamental solution of the Cauchy problem for this equati- on is the density distribution of the probabilities of the force of local interaction between these objects, it belongs to the class of Polya distributions of symmetric stable random processes. Under certain conditions, for the coefficient of local field fluctuations, an analogue of the maximum principle was established for this equation. This principle is important in particular for substantiating the unity of the solution of the Cauchy problem on a time interval where the fluctuation coefficient is a non-decreasing function.
