Abstract

We consider the Stokes equations subject to Navier boundary conditions on a two-dimensional wedge domain with opening angle θ0(0,π)\theta_0 \in (0,\,\pi). We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions with optimal regularity in an LpL^p-setting. The results are based on optimal regularity results for the Stokes equations subject to perfect slip boundary conditions on a two-dimensional wedge domain that have been obtained by the authors in [15]. Based on a detailed study of the corresponding trace operator on anisotropic Sobolev-Slobodeckij type function spaces on a two-dimensional wedge domain we are able to generalize the results proved in [15] to the case of inhomogeneous boundary conditions. Existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Stokes equations subject to (inhomogeneous) Navier boundary conditions are then obtained using a perturbation argument.
