The Besov capacity in metric spaces

Juho Nuutinen (2016)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study a capacity theory based on a definition of Hajłasz-Besov functions. We prove several properties of this capacity in the general setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure. The main results of the paper are lower bound and upper bound estimates for the capacity in terms of a modified Netrusov-Hausdorff content. Important tools are γ-medians, for which we also prove a new version of a Poincaré type inequality.

The boundary Harnack principle for the fractional Laplacian

Krzysztof Bogdan (1997)

Studia Mathematica

We study nonnegative functions which are harmonic on a Lipschitz domain with respect to symmetric stable processes. We prove that if two such functions vanish continuously outside the domain near a part of its boundary, then their ratio is bounded near this part of the boundary.

The boundary-value problems for Laplace equation and domains with nonsmooth boundary

Dagmar Medková (1998)

Archivum Mathematicum

Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin problem for the Laplace equation is investigated on the open set with holes and nonsmooth boundary. The solutions are looked for in the form of a double layer potential and a single layer potential. The measure, the potential of which is a solution of the boundary-value problem, is constructed.

The evolution and Poisson kernels on nilpotent meta-abelian groups

Richard Penney, Roman Urban (2013)

Studia Mathematica

Let S be a semidirect product S = N⋊ A where N is a connected and simply connected, non-abelian, nilpotent meta-abelian Lie group and A is isomorphic to k , k>1. We consider a class of second order left-invariant differential operators on S of the form α = L a + Δ α , where α k , and for each a k , L a is left-invariant second order differential operator on N and Δ α = Δ - α , , where Δ is the usual Laplacian on k . Using some probabilistic techniques (e.g., skew-product formulas for diffusions on S and N respectively) we obtain an...
