On The Boundary Behavior Of Solutions To A Class Of Elliptic Partial Differential Equations

The primary objective of this monograph is to give a comprehensive exposition of results surrounding the work of the authors concerning boundary regularity of weak solutions of second order elliptic quasilinear equations in divergence form. The book also contains a complete development of regularity of solutions of variational inequalities, including the double obstacle problem, where the obstacles are allowed to be discontinuous. The book concludes with a chapter devoted to the existence theory thus providing the reader with a complete treatment of the subject ranging from regularity of weak solutions to the existence of weak solutions.

Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 5: Boundary Value Problems: For Second Order Elliptic Equations is a revised and augmented version of a lecture course on non-Fredholm elliptic boundary value problems, delivered at the Novosibirsk State University in the academic year 1964-1965. This seven-chapter text is devoted to a study of the basic linear boundary value problems for linear second order partial differential equations, which satisfy the condition of uniform ellipticity. The opening chapter deals with the fundamental aspects of the linear equations theory in normed linear spaces. This topic is followed by discussions on solutions of elliptic equations and the formulation of Dirichlet problem for a second order elliptic equation. A chapter focuses on the solution equation for the directional derivative problem. Another chapter surveys the formulation of the Poincaré problem for second order elliptic systems in two independent variables. This chapter also examines the theory of one-dimensional singular integral equations that allow the investigation of highly important classes of boundary value problems. The final chapter looks into other classes of multidimensional singular integral equations and related boundary value problems.

The book is devoted to boundary value problems for general partial differential equations. Efficient methods of resolution of boundary value problems for elliptic equations, based on the theory of analytic functions and having great theoretical and practical importance are developed.A new approach to the investigation of electromagnetic fields is sketched, permitting laws of propagation of electromagnetic energy at a great distance, is outlined and asymptotic formulae for solutions of Maxwell's equation is obtained. These equations are also applied to the efficient resolution of problems.The book is based mostly on the investigation of the author, a considerable part of which being published for the first time.

This monograph mainly deals with several boundary value problems for linear and nonlinear elliptic equations and systems by using function theoretic methods. The established theory is systematic, the considered equations and systems, boundary conditions and domains are rather general. Various methods are used. As an application, the existence of nonlinear quasiconformal mappings onto canonical domains is proved.
