Carleman estimates for anisotropic elliptic operators with jumps at an interface
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a second-order selfadjoint elliptic operator with an anisotropic diffusion matrix having a jump across a smooth hypersurface. We prove the existence of a weight-function such that a Carleman estimate holds true. We moreover prove that the conditions imposed on the weight function are sharp.

Carleman estimate for second order elliptic equations with Lipschitz leading coefficients and jumps at an interface
In this paper we prove a Carleman estimate for second order elliptic equations with a general anisotropic Lipschitz coefficients having a jump at an interface. Our approach does not rely on the techniques of microlocal analysis. We make use of the elementary method so that we are able to impose almost optimal assumptions on the coefficients and, consequently, the interface. It is possible that ...
متن کاملOn Carleman estimates for elliptic and parabolic operators. Applications to unique continuation and control of parabolic equations
A. Local and global Carleman estimates play a central role in the study of some partial differential equations regarding questions such as unique continuation and controllability. We survey and prove such estimates in the case of elliptic and parabolic operators by means of semi-classical microlocal techniques. Optimality results for these estimates and some of their consequences are pre...
متن کاملON Lp RESOLVENT ESTIMATES FOR LAPLACE-BELTRAMI OPERATORS ON COMPACT MANIFOLDS
In this article we prove L estimates for resolvents of Laplace-Beltrami operators on compact Riemannian manifolds, generalizing results of [12] in the Euclidean case and [17] for the torus. We follow [18] and construct Hadamard’s parametrix, then use classical boundedness results on integral operators with oscillatory kernels related to the Carleson and Sjölin condition. Our initial motivation ...
متن کاملCarleman estimates with second large parameter for second order operators
In this paper we prove Carleman type estimates with two large parameters for general linear partial differential operators of second order. By using second large parameter we derive from results for scalar equations first Carleman estimates for dynamical Lamé system with residual stress. We apply these estimates to obtain a Hölder and Lipschitz stability estimates of continuation of solutions o...
متن کاملControl and Cybernetics Generation of Analytic Semi-groups in L 2 for a Class of Second Order Degenerate Elliptic Operators *
Abstract: We study the generation of analytic semigroups in the L topology by second order elliptic operators in divergence form, that may degenerate at the boundary of the space domain. Our results, that hold in two space dimensions, guarantee that the solutions of the corresponding evolution problems support integration by parts. So, this paper provides the basis for deriving Carleman type es...
