چکیده

We study some basic analytic questions related to differential operators on Lie manifolds, which are manifolds whose large scale geometry can be described by a a Lie algebra of vector fields on a compactification. We extend to Lie manifolds several classical results on Sobolev spaces, elliptic regularity, and mapping properties of pseudodifferential operators. A tubular neighborhood theorem for Lie submanifolds allows us also to extend to regular open subsets of Lie manifolds the classical results on traces of functions in suitable Sobolev spaces. Our main application is a regularity result on polyhedral domains P ⊂ R using the weighted Sobolev spaces Ka (P). In particular, we show that there is no loss of Ka –regularity for solutions of strongly elliptic systems with smooth coefficients. For the proof, we identify Ka (P) with the Sobolev spaces on P associated to the metric r P gE , where gE is the Euclidean metric and rP(x) is a smoothing of the Euclidean distance from x to the set of singular points of P. A suitable compactification of the interior of P then becomes a regular open subset of a Lie manifold. We also obtain the wellposedness of a non-standard boundary value problem on a smooth, bounded domain with boundary O ⊂ R using weighted Sobolev spaces, where the weight is the distance to the boundary.

Sobolev Spaces on Lie Manifolds and Polyhedral Domains

We study Sobolev spaces on Lie manifolds, which we define as a class of manifolds described by vector fields (see Definition 1.2). The class of Lie manifolds includes the Euclidean spaces Rn, asymptotically flat manifolds, conformally compact manifolds, and manifolds with cylindrical and polycylindrical ends. As in the classical case of Rn, we define Sobolev spaces using derivatives, powers of ...

Besov Regularity for the Stokes System in Polyhedral Cones

In this paper we study the regularity of solutions to the Stokes system in polyhedral domains contained in R 3. We consider the scale B s τ (L τ), 1/τ = s/3 + 1/2 of Besov spaces which arise in connection with adaptive numerical shemes. The proof of the main result is performed by combining regularity results in weighted Sobolev spaces with characterizations of Besov spaces by wavelet expansions.

Weighted Sobolev spaces and regularity for polyhedral domains

We prove a regularity result for the Poisson problem −∆u = f , u|∂P = g on a polyhedral domain P ⊂ R 3 using the Babuška–Kondratiev spaces Ka (P). These are weighted Sobolev spaces in which the weight is given by the distance to the set of edges [4, 29]. In particular, we show that there is no loss of Ka –regularity for solutions of strongly elliptic systems with smooth coefficients. We also es...

Regularity and Well Posedness for the Laplace Operator on Polyhedral Domains

We announce a well-posedness result for the Laplace equation in weighted Sobolev spaces on polyhedral domains in Rn with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The weight is the distance to the set of singular boundary points. We give a detailed sketch of the proof in three dimensions.
