Abstract

This paper continues the study of the mixed problem for the Laplacian. We consider a bounded Lipschitz domain ΩRn\Omega\subset \reals^n, n2n\geq2, with boundary that is decomposed as Ω=DN\partial\Omega=D\cup N, DD and NN disjoint. We let Λ\Lambda denote the boundary of DD (relative to Ω\partial\Omega) and impose conditions on the dimension and shape of Λ\Lambda and the sets NN and DD. Under these geometric criteria, we show that there exists p0>1p_0>1 depending on the domain Ω\Omega such that for pp in the interval (1,p0)(1,p_0), the mixed problem with Neumann data in the space Lp(N)L^p(N) and Dirichlet data in the Sobolev space W1,p(D)W^ {1,p}(D) has a unique solution with the non-tangential maximal function of the gradient of the solution in Lp(Ω)L^p(\partial\Omega). We also obtain results for p=1p=1 when the Dirichlet and Neumann data comes from Hardy spaces, and a result when the boundary data comes from weighted Sobolev spaces.
