Abstract

We introduce the LpL^p Poisson-Neumann problem for an uniformly elliptic operator L=divAL=-\rm{div }A\nabla in divergence form in a bounded 1-sided Chord Arc Domain Ω\Omega, which considers solutions to Lu=hdivFLu=h-\rm{div}\vec{F} in Ω\Omega with zero Neumann data on the boundary for hh and F\vec F in some tent spaces. We give different characterizations of solvability of the LpL^p Poisson-Neumann problem and its weaker variants, and in particular, we show that solvability of the weak LpL^p Poisson-Neumann probelm is equivalent to a weak reverse H\"older inequality. We show that the Poisson-Neumman problem is closely related to the LpL^p Neumann problem, whose solvability is a long-standing open problem. We are able to improve the extrapolation of the LpL^p Neumann problem from Kenig and Pipher by obtaining an extrapolation result on the Poisson-Neumann problem.
