The Helmholtz decomposition splits a sufficiently smooth vector field into a gradient field and a divergence-free rotation field. Existing decomposition methods impose constraints on the behavior of vector fields at infinity and require…

Smooth vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be decomposed into the sum of a gradient vector field and divergence-free (solenoidal) vector field under suitable hypotheses. This is called the Helmholtz-Hodge decomposition (HHD), which has been…

We decompose $p$ - integrable functions on the boundary of a simply connected Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$ into the sum of the boundary values of two, uniquely determined holomorphic functions, where one is holomorphic in…

Let $\Omega$ be a domain with noncompact boundary. It is known that the Helmholtz decomposition is not always valid in $L^p(\Omega)$ except for the energy space $L^2 (\Omega)$. In this paper we consider a typical unbounded domain whose…

Suppose that $\Omega$ is the open region in $\mathbb{R}^n$ above a Lipschitz graph and let $d$ denote the exterior derivative on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We construct a convolution operator $T $ which preserves support in $\bar{\Omega$}, is…

We study classes of domains in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1},\ d \geq 2$ with sufficiently flat boundaries that admit a decomposition or covering of bounded overlap by Lipschitz graph domains with controlled total surface area. This study is motivated…

Consider operators $L^{V}:=\Delta + V$ in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. Assume that $V\in C^{1,1}(\Omega)$ and $V$ satisfies $V(x) \leq \overline{a} \mathrm{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)^{-2}$ in $\Omega$ and a second…

We show that any non-degenerate vector field $u$ in $ L^{\infty}(\Omega, \R^N)$, where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\R^N$, can be written as {equation} \hbox{$u(x)= \nabla_1 H(S(x), x)$ for a.e. $x \in \Omega$}, {equation} where $S$ is…

We show that the Neumann problem for Laplace's equation in a convex domain $\Omega$ with boundary data in $L^p(\partial\Omega)$ is uniquely solvable for $1<p<\infty$. As a consequence, we obtain the Helmholtz decomposition of vector fields…

The Hodge decomposition provides a very powerful mathematical method for the analysis of 2D and 3D vector fields. It states roughly that any vector field can be $L^2$-orthogonally decomposed into a curl-free, divergence-free, and a harmonic…

We prove that the space of vector fields on the boundary of a bounded domain with the Lipschitz boundary in three dimensions is decomposed into three subspaces: elements of the first one extend to the inside the domain as divergence-free…

Helmholtz decomposition theorem for vector fields is presented usually with too strong restrictions on the fields. Based on the work of Blumenthal of 1905 it is shown that the decomposition of vector fields is not only possible for…

The analysis of vector fields is crucial for the understanding of several physical phenomena, such as natural events (e.g., analysis of waves), diffusive processes, electric and electromagnetic fields. While previous work has been focused…

We introduce a space of $L^2$ vector fields with bounded mean oscillation whose normal component to the boundary is well-controlled. We establish its Helmholtz decomposition in the case when the domain is a perturbed $C^3$ half space in…

Given any divergence-free vector field of Sobolev class $W^{m,p}_0(\Omega)$ in a bounded open subset $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, we are interested in approximating it in the $W^{m,p}$ norm with divergence-free smooth vector fields…
