Book Description
A co-publication of the AMS and Centre de Recherches Mathématiques In this monograph the authors study the well-posedness of boundary value problems of Dirichlet and Neumann type for elliptic systems on the upper half-space with coefficients independent of the transversal variable and with boundary data in fractional Hardy–Sobolev and Besov spaces. The authors use the so-called “first order approach” which uses minimal assumptions on the coefficients and thus allows for complex coefficients and for systems of equations. This self-contained exposition of the first order approach offers new results with detailed proofs in a clear and accessible way and will become a valuable reference for graduate students and researchers working in partial differential equations and harmonic analysis.

Book Description
In this monograph, for elliptic systems with block structure in the upper half-space and t-independent coefficients, the authors settle the study of boundary value problems by proving compatible well-posedness of Dirichlet, regularity and Neumann problems in optimal ranges of exponents. Prior to this work, only the two-dimensional situation was fully understood. In higher dimensions, partial results for existence in smaller ranges of exponents and for a subclass of such systems had been established. The presented uniqueness results are completely new, and the authors also elucidate optimal ranges for problems with fractional regularity data. The first part of the monograph, which can be read independently, provides optimal ranges of exponents for functional calculus and adapted Hardy spaces for the associated boundary operator. Methods use and improve, with new results, all the machinery developed over the last two decades to study such problems: the Kato square root estimates and Riesz transforms, Hardy spaces associated to operators, off-diagonal estimates, non-tangential estimates and square functions, and abstract layer potentials to replace fundamental solutions in the absence of local regularity of solutions.

Book Description
The thesis consists of three papers focussing on the study of nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations in a nonempty open subset Ω of the n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. We study the existence and uniqueness of the solutions, as well as their behaviour near the boundary of Ω. The behaviour of the solutions at infinity is also discussed when Ω is unbounded. In Paper A, we consider a mixed boundary value problem for the p-Laplace equation ∆pu := div(|∇u| p−2∇u) = 0 in an open infinite circular half-cylinder with prescribed Dirichlet boundary data on a part of the boundary and zero Neumann boundary data on the rest. By a suitable transformation of the independent variables, this mixed problem is transformed into a Dirichlet problem for a degenerate (weighted) elliptic equation on a bounded set. By analysing the transformed problem in weighted Sobolev spaces, it is possible to obtain the existence of continuous weak solutions to the mixed problem, both for Sobolev and for continuous data on the Dirichlet part of the boundary. A characterisation of the boundary regularity of the point at infinity is obtained in terms of a new variational capacity adapted to the cylinder. In Paper B, we study Perron solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the degenerate quasilinear elliptic equation div A(x, ∇u) = 0 in a bounded open subset of Rn. The vector-valued function A satisfies the standard ellipticity assumptions with a parameter 1 < p < ∞ and a p-admissible weight w. For general boundary data, the Perron method produces a lower and an upper solution, and if they coincide then the boundary data are called resolutive. We show that arbitrary perturbations on sets of weighted p-capacity zero of continuous (and quasicontinuous Sobolev) boundary data f are resolutive, and that the Perron solutions for f and such perturbations coincide. As a consequence, it is also proved that the Perron solution with continuous boundary data is the unique bounded continuous weak solution that takes the required boundary data outside a set of weighted p-capacity zero. Some results in Paper C are a generalisation of those in Paper A, extended to quasilinear elliptic equations of the form div A(x, ∇u) = 0. Here, results from Paper B are used to prove the existence and uniqueness of continuous weak solutions to the mixed boundary value problem for continuous Dirichlet data. Regularity of the boundary point at infinity for the equation div A(x, ∇u) = 0 is characterised by a Wiener type criterion. We show that sets of Sobolev p-capacity zero are removable for the solutions and also discuss the behaviour of the solutions at ∞. In particular, a certain trichotomy is proved, similar to the Phragmén–Lindelöf principle.

Book Description
The book contains a systematic treatment of the qualitative theory of elliptic boundary value problems for linear and quasilinear second order equations in non-smooth domains. The authors concentrate on the following fundamental results: sharp estimates for strong and weak solutions, solvability of the boundary value problems, regularity assertions for solutions near singular points. Key features: * New the Hardy – Friedrichs – Wirtinger type inequalities as well as new integral inequalities related to the Cauchy problem for a differential equation.* Precise exponents of the solution decreasing rate near boundary singular points and best possible conditions for this.* The question about the influence of the coefficients smoothness on the regularity of solutions.* New existence theorems for the Dirichlet problem for linear and quasilinear equations in domains with conical points.* The precise power modulus of continuity at singular boundary point for solutions of the Dirichlet, mixed and the Robin problems.* The behaviour of weak solutions near conical point for the Dirichlet problem for m – Laplacian.* The behaviour of weak solutions near a boundary edge for the Dirichlet and mixed problem for elliptic quasilinear equations with triple degeneration. * Precise exponents of the solution decreasing rate near boundary singular points and best possible conditions for this.* The question about the influence of the coefficients smoothness on the regularity of solutions.* New existence theorems for the Dirichlet problem for linear and quasilinear equations in domains with conical points.* The precise power modulus of continuity at singular boundary point for solutions of the Dirichlet, mixed and the Robin problems.* The behaviour of weak solutions near conical point for the Dirichlet problem for m - Laplacian.* The behaviour of weak solutions near a boundary edge for the Dirichlet and mixed problem for elliptic quasilinear equations with triple degeneration.

Book Description
This book, which is a new edition of a book originally published in 1965, presents an introduction to the theory of higher-order elliptic boundary value problems. The book contains a detailed study of basic problems of the theory, such as the problem of existence and regularity of solutions of higher-order elliptic boundary value problems. It also contains a study of spectral properties of operators associated with elliptic boundary value problems. Weyl's law on the asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues is studied in great generality.

Book Description
Benedict Baur presents modern functional analytic methods for construction and analysis of Feller processes in general and diffusion processes in particular. Topics covered are: Construction of Lp-strong Feller processes using Dirichlet form methods, regularity for solutions of elliptic boundary value problems, construction of elliptic diffusions with singular drift and reflection, Skorokhod decomposition and applications to Mathematical Physics like finite particle systems with singular interaction. Emphasize is placed on the handling of singular drift coefficients, as well as on the discussion of point wise and path wise properties of the constructed processes rather than just the quasi-everywhere properties commonly known from the general Dirichlet form theory.

Book Description
The theory of boundary value problems for elliptic systems of partial differential equations has many applications in mathematics and the physical sciences. The aim of this book is to "algebraize" the index theory by means of pseudo-differential operators and new methods in the spectral theory of matrix polynomials. This latter theory provides important tools that will enable the student to work efficiently with the principal symbols of the elliptic and boundary operators on the boundary. Because many new methods and results are introduced and used throughout the book, all the theorems are proved in detail, and the methods are well illustrated through numerous examples and exercises. This book is ideal for use in graduate level courses on partial differential equations, elliptic systems, pseudo-differential operators, and matrix analysis.

Book Description
A marriage of the finite-differences method with variational methods for solving boundary-value problems, the finite-element method is superior in many ways to finite-differences alone. This self-contained text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students is intended to imbed this combination of methods into the framework of functional analysis and to explain its applications to approximation of nonhomogeneous boundary-value problems for elliptic operators. The treatment begins with a summary of the main results established in the book. Chapter 1 introduces the variational method and the finite-difference method in the simple case of second-order differential equations. Chapters 2 and 3 concern abstract approximations of Hilbert spaces and linear operators, and Chapters 4 and 5 study finite-element approximations of Sobolev spaces. The remaining four chapters consider several methods for approximating nonhomogeneous boundary-value problems for elliptic operators.
