Nonlocal boundary value problems with BV-type data

Nonlocal Boundary Value Problems

The theory of the nonlocal linear boundary value problems is still on the level of examples. Any attempt to encompass them by a unified scheme sticks upon the lack of general methods. Here we are to outline an algebraic approach to linear nonlocal boundary value problems. It is based on the notion of convolution of linear operator and on operational calculus on it. Our operators are right inver...

Nonlocal Elliptic Boundary Value Problems

Initial-boundary Value Problems for Continuity Equations with Bv Coefficients

We establish well-posedness of initial-boundary value problems for continuity equations with BV (bounded total variation) coefficients. We do not prescribe any condition on the orientation of the coefficients at the boundary of the domain. We also discuss some examples showing that, regardless the orientation of the coefficients at the boundary, uniqueness may be violated as soon as the BV regu...

Solvability of Nonlocal Fractional Boundary Value Problems

A Nonlocal Vector Calculus with Application to Nonlocal Boundary Value Problems

Abstract. We develop a calculus for nonlocal operators that mimics Gauss’ theorem and the Green’s identities of the classical vector calculus. The operators we define do not involve the derivatives. We then apply the nonlocal calculus to define variational formulations of nonlocal “boundaryvalue” problems that mimic the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for second-order scalar elliptic partial dif...
