contents Let $\mathbb{H}^n$ be the $n$-dimensional real hyperbolic space, $Δ$ its nonnegative Laplace--Beltrami operator whose bottom of the spectrum we denote by $λ_{0}$, and $σ\in (0,1)$. The aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand, we determine the Fujita exponent for the fractional heat equation \[\partial_{t} u + Δ^σu = e^{βt}|u|^{γ-1}u,\] by proving that nontrivial positive global solutions exist if and only if $γ\geq 1 + β/ λ_{0}^σ$. On the other hand, we prove the existence of non-negative, bounded and finite energy solutions of the semilinear fractional elliptic equation \[ Δ^σ v - λ^σ v - v^γ=0 \] for $0\leq λ\leq λ_{0}$ and $1<γ< \frac{n+2σ}{n-2σ}$. The two problems are known to be connected and the latter, aside from its independent interest, is actually instrumental to the former. \smallskip At the core of our results stands a novel fractional Poincaré-type inequality expressed in terms of a new scale of $L^{2}$ fractional Sobolev spaces, which sharpens those known so far, and which holds more generally on Riemannian symmetric spaces of non-compact type. We also establish an associated Rellich--Kondrachov-like compact embedding theorem for radial functions, along with other related properties.
