We consider linear boundary value problems for higher-order parameter-elliptic equations, where the boundary data do not belong to the classical trace spaces. We employ a class of Sobolev spaces of mixed smoothness that admits a generalized…
We consider a class of (ill-posed) optimal control problems in which a distributed vector-valued control is enforced to pointwise take values in a finite set $\mathcal{M}\subset\mathbb{R}^m$. After convex relaxation, one obtains a…

In this paper, we investigate a rather general system of two operator equations that has the structure of a viscous or nonviscous Cahn--Hilliard system in which nonlinearities of double-well type occur. Standard cases like regular or…
All finite element methods, as well as much of the Hilbert-space theory for partial differential equations, rely on variational formulations, that is, problems of the type: find $u\in V$ such that $a(v,u) = l(v)$ for each $v\in L$, where…
We prove existence and uniqueness of the mild solution of an infinite dimensional, operator valued, backward stochastic Riccati equation. We exploit the regularizing properties of the semigroup generated by the unbounded operator involved…
We consider different concepts of well-posedness and ill-posedness and their relations for solving nonlinear and linear operator equations in Hilbert spaces. First, the concepts of Hadamard and Nashed are recalled which are appropriate for…
The vector Riemann-Hilbert problem is analyzed when the entries of its matrix coefficient are meromorphic and almost periodic functions. Three cases for the meromorphic functions, when they have (i) a finite number of poles and zeros…
