The Neumann Problem for Higher Order Elliptic Equations with Symmetric Coefficients

چکیده
In this paper we establish well posedness of the Neumann problem with boundary data in L2 or the Sobolev space Ẇ 2 −1, in the half space, for linear elliptic differential operators with coefficients that are constant in the vertical direction and in addition are self adjoint. This generalizes the well known well-posedness result of the second order case and is based on a higher order and one sided version of the classic Rellich identity, and is the first known well posedness result for a higher order operator with rough variable coefficients and boundary data in a Lebesgue or Sobolev space.

Asymptotic distributions of Neumann problem for Sturm-Liouville equation
In this paper we apply the Homotopy perturbation method to derive the higher-order asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions associated with the linear real second order equation of Sturm-liouville type on $[0,pi]$ with Neumann conditions $(y'(0)=y'(pi)=0)$ where $q$ is a real-valued Sign-indefinite number of $C^{1}[0,pi]$ and $lambda$ is a real parameter.
متن کاملThe Regularity and Neumann Problem for Non-symmetric Elliptic Operators
We establish optimal Lp bounds for the non-tangential maximal function of the gradient of the solution to a second-order elliptic operator in divergence form, possibly non-symmetric, with bounded measurable coefficients independent of the vertical variable, on the domain above a Lipschitz graph in the plane, in terms of the Lp-norm at the boundary of the tangential derivative of the Dirichlet d...
متن کاملNEUMANN PROBLEM FOR NON-DIVERGENCE ELLIPTIC AND PARABOLIC EQUATIONS WITH BMOx COEFFICIENTS IN WEIGHTED SOBOLEV SPACES
We prove the unique solvability in weighted Sobolev spaces of non-divergence form elliptic and parabolic equations on a half space with the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. All the leading coefficients are assumed to be only measurable in the time variable and have small mean oscillations in the spatial variables. Our results can be applied to Neumann boundary value problems for stochast...
متن کاملDirichlet and Neumann Boundary Values of Solutions to Higher Order Elliptic Equations
We show that if u is a solution to a linear elliptic differential equation of order 2m ≥ 2 in the half-space with t-independent coefficients, and if u satisfies certain area integral estimates, then the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary values of u exist and lie in a Lebesgue space Lp(Rn) or Sobolev space Ẇ p ±1(R n). Even in the case where u is a solution to a second order equation, our results a...
متن کاملLayer Potentials and Boundary-Value Problems for Second Order Elliptic Operators with Data in Besov Spaces
This monograph presents a comprehensive treatment of second order divergence form elliptic operators with bounded measurable t-independent coefficients in spaces of fractional smoothness, in Besov and weighted L classes. We establish: (1) Mapping properties for the double and single layer potentials, as well as the Newton potential; (2) Extrapolation-type solvability results: the fact that solv...
