Abstract

We prove the well-posedness and regularity of solutions in mixed-norm weighted Sobolev spaces for a class of second-order parabolic and elliptic systems in divergence form in the half-space R+d={xd>0}\mathbb{R}^d_+ = \{x_d > 0\} subject to the conormal boundary condition. Our work extends results previously available for scalar equations to the case of systems of equations. The leading coefficients are the product of xdαx_d^{\alpha} and bounded non-degenerate matrices, where α(1,)\alpha \in (-1,\infty). The leading coefficients are assumed to be merely measurable in the xdx_d variable, and to have small mean oscillations in small cylinders with respect to the other variables. If the parameter α>0\alpha>0, the lower-order coefficients are allowed to blow-up near the boundary. Our results readily generalize to infinite-dimensional equations in general real and complex Hilbert spaces.
