We study the Dirichlet problem for systems of the form -\Delta u^k=f^k(x,u)+\mu^k, x\in\Omega, k=1,...,n, where \Omega\subset R^d$ is an open (possibly nonregular) bounded set, \mu^1,...,\mu^n are bounded diffuse measures on \Omega,…

We consider the Dirichlet problem for solutions to general second-order homogeneous elliptic equations with constant complex coefficients. We prove that any Jordan domain with $C^{1,\alpha}$-smooth boundary, $0<\alpha<1$, is not regular…

Approximations of the Dirac delta distribution are commonly used to create sequences of smooth functions approximating nonsmooth (generalized) functions, via convolution. In this work, we show a priori rates of convergence of this…
