On the mean value property of fractional harmonic functions
As is well known, harmonic functions satisfy the mean value property, i.e. the average of such a function over a ball is equal to its value at the center. This fact naturally raises the question on whether this is a feature characterizing only balls, namely, is a set, for which all harmonic functions satisfy the mean value property, necessarily a ball? This question was investigated by several authors, including Bernard Epstein (1962), Bernard Epstein and Schiffer (1965), Myron Goldstein and Wellington (1971), who obtained a positive answer to this question under suitable additional assumptions. The problem was finally elegantly, completely and positively settled by Ülkü Kuran (1972), with an artful use of elementary techniques. This classical problem has been recently fleshed out by Giovanni Cupini, et al. (in press) who proved a quantitative stability result for the mean value formula, showing that a suitable “mean value gap” (measuring the normalized difference between the average of harmonic functions on a given set and their pointwise value) is bounded from below by the Lebesgue measure of the “gap” between the set and the ball (and, consequently, by the Fraenkel asymmetry of the set). That is, if a domain “almost” satisfies the mean value property for all harmonic functions, then that domain is “almost” a ball. The goal of this note is to investigate some nonlocal counterparts of these results. Some of our arguments rely on fractional potential theory, others on purely nonlocal properties, with no classical counterpart, such as the fact that “all functions are locally fractional harmonic up to a small error”

A Faber-Krahn inequality for mixed local and nonlocal operators
We consider the first Dirichlet eigenvalue problem for a mixed local/nonlocal elliptic operator and we establish a quantitative Faber-Krahn inequality. More precisely, we show that balls minimize the first eigenvalue among sets of given volume and we provide a stability result for sets that almost attain the minimum
