Solution of the first problem of plane elasticity for multiply connected regions by the method of least squares on the boundary. I
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.
Two kinds of orthogonal decompositions of the Sobolev space W̊₂¹ and hence also of for bounded domains are given. They originate from a decomposition of W̊₂¹ into the orthogonal sum of the subspace of the -solenoidal functions, k ≥ 1, and its explicitly given orthogonal complement. This decomposition is developed in the real as well as in the complex case. For the solenoidal subspace (k = 0) the decomposition appears in a little different form. In the second kind decomposition the -solenoidal...
