Elliptic regularity and solvability for PDEs with Colombeau coefficients

چکیده
The paper addresses questions of existence and regularity of solutions to linear partial differential equations whose coefficients are generalized functions or generalized constants in the sense of Colombeau. We introduce various new notions of ellipticity and hypoellipticity, study their interrelation, and give a number of new examples and counterexamples. Using the concept of G∞-regularity of generalized functions, we derive a general global regularity result in the case of operators with constant generalized coefficients, a more specialized result for second order operators, and a microlocal regularity result for certain first order operators with variable generalized coefficients. We also prove a global solvability result for operators with constant generalized coefficients and compactly supported Colombeau generalized functions as right hand sides.

متن کاملThe Connections between Dirichlet, Regularity and Neumann Problems for Second Order Elliptic Operators with Complex Bounded Measurable Coefficients
The present paper discusses the relations between regularity, Dirichlet, and Neumann problems. Among other results, we prove that the solvability of the regularity problem does not imply the solvability of the dual Dirichlet problem for general elliptic operators with complex bounded measurable coefficients. This is strikingly different from the case of real operators, for which such an implica...
متن کاملBoundary value problems for elliptic operators with singular drift terms
Let Ω be a Lipschitz domain in R, n ≥ 3, and L = divA∇ − B∇ be a second order elliptic operator in divergence form with real coefficients such that A is a bounded elliptic matrix and the vector field B ∈ Lloc(Ω) is divergence free and satisfies the growth condition dist(X, ∂Ω)|B(X)| ≤ ε1 for ε1 small in a neighbourhood of ∂Ω. For these elliptic operators we will study on the basis of the theory...
متن کاملA Relationship between the Dirichlet and Regularity Problems for Elliptic Equations
Abstract. Let L = divA∇ be a real, symmetric second order elliptic operator with bounded measurable coefficients. Consider the elliptic equation Lu = 0 in a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω of R. We study the relationship between the solvability of the L Dirichlet problem (D)p with boundary data in L(∂Ω) and that of the L regularity problem (R)q with boundary data in W (∂Ω), where 1 < p, q < ∞. It is...
متن کاملSolvability of Elliptic Systems with Square Integrable Boundary Data
We consider second order elliptic divergence form systems with complex measurable coefficients A that are independent of the transversal coordinate, and prove that the set of A for which the boundary value problem with L2 Dirichlet or Neumann data is well posed, is an open set. Furthermore we prove that these boundary value problems are well posed when A is either Hermitean, block or constant. ...
