The Dirichlet Casimir Problem
Casimir forces are conventionally computed by analyzing the effects of boundary conditions on a fluctuating quantum field. Although this analysis provides a clean and calculationally tractable idealization, it does not always accurately capture the characteristics of real materials, which cannot constrain the modes of the fluctuating field at all energies. We study the vacuum polarization energ...
متن کاملDirichlet Duality and the Nonlinear Dirichlet Problem
We study the Dirichlet problem for fully nonlinear, degenerate elliptic equations of the form F.Hessu/ D 0 on a smoothly bounded domain b Rn. In our approach the equation is replaced by a subset F Sym.Rn/ of the symmetric n nmatrices with @F fF D 0g. We establish the existence and uniqueness of continuous solutions under an explicit geometric “F -convexity” assumption on the boundary @. We a...
متن کاملThe Dirichlet Problem
We present here two approaches to the Dirichlet problem: The classical method of subharmonic functions that culminated in the works of Perron and Wiener, and the more modern Sobolev space approach tied to calculus of variations.
متن کاملThe Dirichlet Problem∗
We prove the classical result regarding the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for bounded domains with sufficiently smooth boundaries. We present the method described in [7], the main ingredient being the Fredhom alternative applied to a suitably constructed compact operator.
متن کاملSolving the Dirichlet problem constructively
The Dirichlet problem is of central importance in both applied and abstract potential theory. We prove the (perhaps surprising) result that the existence of solutions in the general case is an essentially nonconstructive proposition: there is no algorithm which will actually compute solutions for arbitrary domains and boundary conditions. A corollary of our results is the non-existence of const...
