| contents | We construct counterexamples for the partial data inverse problem for the fractional conductivity equation in all dimensions on general bounded open sets. In particular, we show that for any bounded domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and any disjoint open sets $W_1,W_2 \Subset \mathbb{R}^n \setminus \barΩ$ there always exist two positive, bounded, smooth, conductivities $γ_1,γ_2$, $γ_1 \neq γ_2$, with equal partial exterior Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps $Λ_{γ_1}f|_{W_2} = Λ_{γ_2}f|_{W_2}$ for all $f \in C_c^\infty(W_1)$. The proof uses the characterization of equal exterior data from another work of the authors in combination with the maximum principle of fractional Laplacians. The main technical difficulty arises from the requirement that the conductivities should be strictly positive and have a special regularity property $γ_i^{1/2}-1 \in H^{2s,\frac{n}{2s}}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $i=1,2$. We also provide counterexamples on domains that are bounded in one direction when $n \geq 4$ or $s \in (0,n/4]$ when $n=2,3$ using a modification of the argument on bounded domains. |
