Abstract

The main goal of this work is to prove that every non-negative strong solution of the fractional heat equation can be written as a kernel convolution with its initial datum. This result shows uniqueness in the setting of non-negative solutions and extends some classical results for the heat equation by D. V. Widder to the nonlocal diffusion framework.
