Sharp criteria for nonlocal elliptic inequalities on manifolds

Let $M$ be a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold and $\sigma$ be a Radon measure on $M$, we study the existence and non-existence of positive solutions to a nonlocal elliptic inequality \begin{equation*} (-Δ)^α u\geq u^{q}σ\quad $\text{in}$,,M, \end{equation*} with $q>1$. When the Green function $G^{(\alpha )}$ of the fractional Laplacian $(-\mathrm{\Delta }{)}^{\alpha }$ exists and satisfies the quasi-metric property, we obtain necessary and sufficient criteria for existence of positive solutions. In particular, explicit conditions in terms of volume growth and the growth of $\sigma$ are given, when $M$ admits Li-Yau Gaussian type heat kernel estimates.
