    Get PDF
    The purpose of this paper is to combine a layer potential analysis with the Schauder fixed point theorem to show the existence of solutions of the Poisson problem for a semilinear Brinkman system on bounded Lipschitz domains in Rn (n 65 2) with Dirichlet or Robin boundary conditions and data in L2-based Sobolev spaces. We also obtain an existence and uniqueness result for the Dirichlet problem for a special semilinear elliptic system, called the Darcy\u2013Forchheimer\u2013 Brinkman system

    Loewner PDE in infinite dimensions

    Full text link
    In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution f(z,t)f(z,t) of the Loewner PDE with normalization Df(0,t)=etADf(0,t)=e^{tA}, where AL(X,X)A\in L(X,X) is such that k+(A)<2m(A)k_+(A)<2m(A), on the unit ball of a separable reflexive complex Banach space XX. We also give improvements of the results obtained recently by Hamada and Kohr, but we omit their proofs for the sake of brevity. In particular, we obtain the biholomorphicity of the univalent Schwarz mappings v(z,s,t)v(z,s,t) with normalization Dv(0,s,t)=e(ts)ADv(0,s,t)=e^{-(t-s)A} for ts0t\geq s\geq 0, where m(A)>0m(A)>0, which satisfy the semigroup property on the unit ball of a complex Banach space XX. We further obtain the biholomorphicity of AA-normalized univalent subordination chains under some normality condition on the unit ball of a reflexive complex Banach space XX. We prove the existence of the biholomorphic solutions f(z,t)f(z,t) of the Loewner PDE with normalization Df(0,t)=etADf(0,t)=e^{tA} on the unit ball of a separable reflexive complex Banach space XX. The results obtained in this paper give some positive answers to the open problems and conjectures proposed by the authors in 2013

    The L2L^2-unique continuation property on manifolds with bounded geometry and the deformation operator

    Full text link
    A differential operator TT satisfies the L2L^2-unique continuation property if every L2L^2-solution of TT that vanishes on an open subset vanishes identically. We study the L2L^2-unique continuation property of an operator TT acting on a manifold with bounded geometry. In particular, we establish some connections between this property and the regularity properties of TT. As an application, we prove that the deformation operator on a manifold with bounded geometry satisfies regularity and L2L^2-unique continuation properties. As another application, we prove that suitable elliptic operators are invertible (Hadamard well-posedness). Our results apply to compact manifolds, which have bounded geometry

    Essentially translation invariant pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with cylindrical ends

    Full text link
    We study two classes (or calculi) of pseudodifferential operators defined on manifolds with cylindrical ends: the class of pseudodifferential operators that are ``translation invariant at infinity'' and the class of ``essentially translation invariant operators'' that have appeared in the study of layer potential operators on manifolds with straight cylindrical ends. Both classes are close to the bb-calculus considered by Melrose and Schulze and to the cc-calculus considered by Melrose and Mazzeo-Melrose. Our calculi, however, are different and, while some of their properties follow from those of the bb- or cc-calculi, many of their properties do not. In particular, the ``essentially translation invariant calculus'' is spectrally invariant, a property not enjoyed by the ``translation invariant at infinity'' calculus or the bb-calculus. For our calculi, we provide easy, intuitive proofs of the usual properties: stability for products and adjoints, mapping and boundedness properties for operators acting between Sobolev spaces, regularity properties, existence of a quantization map and topological properties of our algebras, the Fredholm property. Since our applications will be to the Stokes operator, we systematically work in the setting of Agmon-Douglis-Nirenberg-elliptic operators.Comment: 39 page

    Integral potential method for a transmission problem with Lipschitz interface in R^3 for the Stokes and Darcy–Forchheimer–Brinkman PDE systems

    Get PDF
    The purpose of this paper is to obtain existence and uniqueness results in weighted Sobolev spaces for transmission problems for the non-linear Darcy-Forchheimer-Brinkman system and the linear Stokes system in two complementary Lipschitz domains in R3, one of them is a bounded Lipschitz domain with connected boundary, and the other one is the exterior Lipschitz domain R3 n. We exploit a layer potential method for the Stokes and Brinkman systems combined with a fixed point theorem in order to show the desired existence and uniqueness results, whenever the given data are suitably small in some weighted Sobolev spaces and boundary Sobolev spaces

    Certain partial differential subordinations on some Reinhardt domains in Cnℂ^n

    We obtain an extension of Jack-Miller-Mocanu's Lemma for holomorphic mappings defined in some Reinhardt domains in Cnℂ^n. Using this result we consider first and second order partial differential subordinations for holomorphic mappings defined on the Reinhardt domain B2pB_{2p} with p ≥ 1
