We establish optimal L^p bounds for the nontangential maximal function of the gradient of the solution to a second order elliptic operator in divergence form, possibly non-symmetric, with bounded measurable coefficients independent of the…
We introduce a new condition on elliptic operators $L= {1/2}\triangle + b \cdot \nabla $ which ensures the validity of the Liouville property for bounded solutions to $Lu=0$ on $\R^d$. Such condition is sharp when $d=1$. We extend our…
For a class of integral operators with kernels metric functions on manifold we find some necessary and sufficient conditions to have finite rank. The problem we pose has a stochastic nature and boils down to the following alternative…
We study an elliptic operator $L:=\mathrm{div}(A\nabla \cdot)$ on the upper half space. It is known that solvability of the Regularity problem in $\dot{W}^{1,p}$ implies solvability of the adjoint Dirichlet problem in $L^{p'}$. Previously,…
Over the years, numerous rank estimators for factor models have been proposed in the literature. This article focuses on information criterion-based rank estimators and investigates their consistency in rank selection. The gap conditions…
We show that the formula for the essential norm of a multiplication operator on $L_p$, for $1<p<\infty$, also holds for $p=1$. We also provide a proof for the formula which works simultaneously for all $p\in[1,\infty)$.
Given a complex, elliptic coefficient function we investigate for which values of $p$ the corresponding second-order divergence form operator, complemented with Dirichlet, Neumann or mixed boundary conditions, generates a strongly…
We study the homogeneous elliptic systems of order $2\ell$ with real constant coefficients on Lipschitz domains in $R^n$, $n\ge 4$. For any fixed $p>2$, we show that a reverse H\"older condition with exponent $p$ is necessary and sufficient…
We prove qualitatively sharp estimates of the potential kernel for the harmonic oscillator. These bounds are then used to show that the $L^p-L^q$ estimates of the associated potential operator obtained recently by Bongioanni and Torrea are…
We consider a second-order selfadjoint elliptic operator with an anisotropic diffusion matrix having a jump across a smooth hypersurface. We prove the existence of a weight-function such that a Carleman estimate holds true. We moreover…
Regularity theorems \`a la Avellaneda-Lin are an indispensable part of the modern quantitative theory of stochastic homogenization. While interior regularity results for random elliptic operators have been available for a while, on general…
Let $\Omega \subset {\bf R}^d$ be open. We investigate conditions under which an operator $T$ on $L_2(\Omega)$ has a continuous kernel $K \in C(\overline \Omega \times \overline \Omega)$. In the centre of our interest is the condition $T…
This paper focuses on systems of strongly coupled elliptic operators whose coefficients may be unbounded and are defined on a domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$. It is shown that a quasi-contractive semigroup in $L^p$-spaces can be…
Let $A$ be a separable, unital, simple C*-algebra with stable rank one. We show that every strictly positive, lower semicontinuous, affine function on the simplex of normalized quasitraces of $A$ is realized as the rank of an operator in…
We slightly generalize a notion of rank introduced by Glasner and Megrelishvili, which captures the oscillations of elements of Ellis semigroups, so that it can be applied to any compact Hausdorff space instead of being limited to the…
Suppose that ${\cal L}$ is a divergence form differential operator of the form ${\cal L}f:=(1/2) e^{U}\nabla_x\cdot\big[e^{-U}(I+H)\nabla_x f\big]$, where $U$ is scalar valued, $I$ identity matrix and $H$ an anti-symmetric matrix valued…
The paper addresses questions of existence and regularity of solutions to linear partial differential equations whose coefficients are generalized functions or generalized constants in the sense of Colombeau. We introduce various new…
We consider a functional calculus for compact operators, acting on the singular values rather than the spectrum, which appears frequently in applied mathematics. Necessary and sufficient conditions for this singular value functional…
We introduce the notion of a regular mapping on a non-commutative $L_p$-space associated to a hyperfinite von Neumann algebra for $1\le p\le \infty$. This is a non-commutative generalization of the notion of regular or order bounded map on…
In this article, we present a simpler and alternative proof of the solvability of the regularity problem - that is, the Dirichlet problem with boundary data in $\dot W^{1,p}$ - for uniformly elliptic operators on $\mathbb{R}^n_+$ under a…
