Localized boundary-domain integral equation formulation for mixed type problems

Copyright @ 2010 Walter de Gruyter GmbHSome modified direct localized boundary-domain integral equations (LBDIEs) systems associated with the mixed boundary value problem (BVP) for a scalar “Laplace” PDE with variable coefficient are formulated and analyzed. The main results established in the paper are the LBDIEs equivalence to the original variable-coefficient BVPs and the invertibility of the corresponding localized boundary-domain integral operators in appropriately chosen function spaces

Analysis of some localized boundary-domain integral equations

Some direct segregated localized boundary-domain integral equation (LBDIE) systems associated with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems (BVP) for a scalar "Laplace" PDE with variable coefficient are formulated and analysed. The parametrix is localized by multiplication with a radial localizing function. Mapping and jump properties of surface and volume integral potentials based on a localized parametrix and constituting the LBDIE systems are studied in a scale of Sobolev (Bessel potential) spaces. The main results established in the paper are the LBDIEs equivalence to the original variable-coefficient BVPs and the invertibility of the LBDIE operators in the corresponding Sobolev spaces

About analysis of some localized boundary-domain integral equations for a variable-coefficient BVPs

Some direct localized boundary-domain integral equations (LBDIEs) associated with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems for the "Laplace" linear differential equation with a variable coefficient are formulated. The LBDIEs are based on a parametrix localized by a cut-off function. Applying the theory of pseudo-differential operators, invertibility of the localized volume potentials is proved first. This allows then to prove solvability, solution uniqueness and equivalence of the LBDIEs to the original BVP, and investigate the LBDIE operator invertibility in appropriate Sobolev spaces

Localized direct segregated boundary-domain integral equations for variable-coefficient transmission problems with interface crack

The full text of the published article can be accessed at the link belowSome transmission problems for scalar second order elliptic partial differential equations are considered in a bounded composite domain consisting of adjacent anisotropic subdomains having a common interface surface. The matrix of coefficients of the differential operator has a jump across the interface but in each of the adjacent subdomains is represented as the product of a constant matrix by a smooth variable scalar function. The Dirichlet or mixed type boundary conditions are prescribed on the exterior boundary of the composite domain, the Neumann conditions on the the interface crack surfaces and the transmission conditions on the rest of the interface. Employing the parametrix-based localized potential method, the transmission problems are reduced to the localized boundary-domain integral equations. The corresponding localized boundary-domain integral operators are investigated and their invertibility in appropriate function spaces is proved.This research was supported by EPSRC grant No. EP/H020497/1 and partly by the Georgian Technical University gran

Localized boundary-domain singular integral equations based on harmonic parametrix for divergence-form elliptic PDEs with variable matrix coefficients

This is the post-print version of the Article. The official publised version can be accessed from the links below. Copyright @ 2013 Springer BaselEmploying the localized integral potentials associated with the Laplace operator, the Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin boundary value problems for general variable-coefficient divergence-form second-order elliptic partial differential equations are reduced to some systems of localized boundary-domain singular integral equations. Equivalence of the integral equations systems to the original boundary value problems is proved. It is established that the corresponding localized boundary-domain integral operators belong to the Boutet de Monvel algebra of pseudo-differential operators. Applying the Vishik-Eskin theory based on the factorization method, the Fredholm properties and invertibility of the operators are proved in appropriate Sobolev spaces.This research was supported by the grant EP/H020497/1: "Mathematical Analysis of Localized Boundary-Domain Integral Equations for Variable-Coefficient Boundary Value Problems" from the EPSRC, UK

The official published version can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2013 World Scientific Publishing.Direct segregated systems of boundary-domain integral equations are formulated for the mixed (Dirichlet–Neumann) boundary value problems for a scalar second-order divergent elliptic partial differential equation with a variable coefficient in an exterior three-dimensional domain. The boundary-domain integral equation system equivalence to the original boundary value problems and the Fredholm properties and invertibility of the corresponding boundary-domain integral operators are analyzed in weighted Sobolev spaces suitable for infinite domains.

Analysis of direct boundary-domain integral equations for a mixed BVP with variable coefficient, I: Equivalence and Invertibility

Copyright @ 2009 Rocky Mountain Mathematics ConsortiumA mixed (Dirichlet-Neumann) boundary value problem (BVP) for the "stationary heat transfer" partial differential equation with variable coefficient is reduced to some systems of nonstandard segregated direct parametrix-based boundary-domain integral equations (BDIEs). The BDIE systems contain integral operators defined on the domain under consideration as well as potential-type and pseudo-differential operators defined on oopen submanifolds of the boundary. It is shown that the BDIS systems are equivalent to the original mixed BVP, and the operators of the BDIE systems are invertible in appropriate Sobolev spaces
