We consider two natural problems arising in geometry which are equivalent to the local solvability of specific equations of Monge-Ampere type. These are: the problem of locally prescribed Gaussian curvature for surfaces in R^3, and the…

We consider three problems for the Helmholtz equation in interior and exterior domains in R^d (d=2,3): the exterior Dirichlet-to-Neumann and Neumann-to-Dirichlet problems for outgoing solutions, and the interior impedance problem. We derive…
