For fairly general open sets it is shown that we can express a solution of the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation in the form of a single layer potential of a signed measure which is given by a concrete series. If the open set is simply connected and bounded then the solution of the Dirichlet problem is the double layer potential with a density given by a similar series.

For open sets with a piecewise smooth boundary it is shown that we can express a solution of the Robin problem for the Laplace equation in the form of a single layer potential of a signed measure which is given by a concrete series.

Soit $L$ un opérateur parabolique sur ${\mathbf{R}}_{n+1}$ écrit sous forme divergence et à coefficients lipschitziens relativement à une métrique adaptée. Nous cherchons à comparer près de la frontière le comportement relatif des $L$-solutions positives sur un domaine “lipschitzien”. Dans un premier temps, nous démontrons un principe de Harnack uniforme pour certaines $L$-solutions positives. Ce principe nous permet alors de démontrer une inégalité de Harnack forte à la frontière pour certains couples de $L$-solutions positives....

We obtain solvability conditions in H6(ℝ3) for a sixth order partial differential equation which is the linearized Cahn-Hilliard problem using the results derived for a Schrödinger type operator without Fredholm property in our preceding article [18].

The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of solutions to the Poisson equation in weighted Sobolev spaces, where the weight is the distance to some distinguished axis, raised to a negative power. Therefore we are looking for solutions which vanish sufficiently fast near the axis. Such a result is useful in the proof of the existence of global regular solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations which are close to axially symmetric solutions.

Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33, 31B10In the present paper a New Iterative Method [1] has been employed to find solutions of linear and non-linear fractional diffusion-wave equations. Illustrative examples are solved to demonstrate the efficiency of the method.* This work has partially been supported by the grant F. No. 31-82/2005(SR) from the University Grants Commission, N.

In this paper we investigate some applications of the trace condition for pluriharmonic functions on a smooth, bounded domain in Cn. This condition, related to the normal component on ∂D of the ∂-operator, permits us to study the Neumann problem for pluriharmonic functions and the ∂-problem for (0,1)-forms on D with solutions having assigned real part on the boundary.

The relationship between weighted Lipschitz functions and analytic Bloch spaces has attracted much attention. In this paper, we define harmonic $\omega$-$\alpha$-Bloch space and characterize it in terms of $$\omega \left(\right(1-{\left|x\right|}^2{)}^{\beta }{(1-|y|}^2{)}^{\alpha -\beta })\left|\frac{f\left(x\right)-f\left(y\right)}{x-y}\right|$$ and $$\omega \left(\right(1-{\left|x\right|}^2{)}^{\beta }{(1-|y|}^2{)}^{\alpha -\beta })\left|\frac{f\left(x\right)-f\left(y\right)}{\left|x\right|y-x^{\text{'}}}\right|$$ where $\omega$ is a majorant. Similar results are extended to harmonic little $\omega$-$\alpha$-Bloch and Besov spaces. Our results are generalizations of the corresponding ones in G. Ren, U. Kähler (2005).

In this paper, we characterize a class of biharmonic maps from and between product manifolds in terms of the warping function. Examples are constructed when one of the factors is either Euclidean space or sphere.

In this paper we want to show how well-known results from the theory of (regular) elliptic boundary value problems, function spaces and interpolation, subordination in the sense of Bochner and Dirichlet forms can be combined and how one can thus get some new aspects in each of these fields.

Simple examples of bounded domains $D\subset {𝐑}^3$ are considered for which the presence of peculiar corners and edges in the boundary $\delta D$ causes that the double layer potential operator acting on the space $𝒮\left(\delta D\right)$ of all continuous functions on $\delta D$ can for no value of the parameter $\alpha$ be approximated (in the sub-norm) by means of operators of the form $\alpha I+T$ (where $I$ is the identity operator and $T$ is a compact linear operator) with a deviation less then $\left|\alpha \right|$; on the other hand, such approximability turns out to be possible for...

We study the appropriate versions of parabolicity stochastic completeness and related Liouville properties for a general class of operators which include the p-Laplace operator, and the non linear singular operators in non-diagonal form considered by J. Serrin and collaborators.
