Observations on W 1 , p estimates for divergence elliptic equations with VMO coefficients

P. Auscher, M. Qafsaoui (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

In this paper, we make some observations on the work of Di Fazio concerning W 1 , p estimates, 1 < p < , for solutions of elliptic equations div A u = div f , on a domain Ω with Dirichlet data 0 whenever A V M O Ω and f L p Ω . We weaken the assumptions allowing real and complex non-symmetric operators and C 1 boundary. We also consider the corresponding inhomogeneous Neumann problem for which we prove the similar result. The main tool is an appropriate representation for the Green (and Neumann) function on the upper half space. We propose...

Obstacle problems for scalar conservation laws

Laurent Levi (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper we are interested in bilateral obstacle problems for quasilinear scalar conservation laws associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Firstly, we provide a suitable entropy formulation which ensures uniqueness. Then, we justify the existence of a solution through the method of penalization and by referring to the notion of entropy process solution due to specific properties of bounded sequences in L . Lastly, we study the behaviour of this solution and its stability properties with...

Firstly, we provide a suitable entropy formulation which ensures uniqueness. Then, we justify the existence of a solution through the method of penalization and by referring to the notion of entropy process solution due to specific properties of bounded sequences in L∞.

On a Bernoulli problem with geometric constraints

Antoine Laurain, Yannick Privat (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A Bernoulli free boundary problem with geometrical constraints is studied. The domain Ω is constrained to lie in the half space determined by x1 ≥ 0 and its boundary to contain a segment of the hyperplane  {x1 = 0}  where non-homogeneous Dirichlet conditions are imposed. We are then looking for the solution of a partial differential equation satisfying a Dirichlet and a Neumann boundary condition simultaneously on the free boundary. The existence and uniqueness of a solution have already been addressed...

On a class of Markov type semigroups in spaces of uniformly continuous and bounded functions

Enrico Priola (1999)

Studia Mathematica

We study a new class of Markov type semigroups (not strongly continuous in general) in the space of all real, uniformly continuous and bounded functions on a separable metric space E. Our results allow us to characterize the generators of Markov transition semigroups in infinite dimensions such as the heat and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups.
