It is widely known that the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian is stable under small perturbations of a domain, while in the case of the Neumann or mixed boundary conditions the spectrum may abruptly change. In this work we discuss an…
We consider the numerical solution of the fractional Laplacian of index $s\in(1/2,1)$ in a bounded domain $\Omega$ with homogeneous boundary conditions. Its solution a priori belongs to the fractional order Sobolev space ${\widetilde…
In this paper we analyze nonlocal equations in perforated domains. We consider nonlocal problems of the form $f(x) = \int_{B} J(x-y) (u(y) - u(x)) dy$ with $x$ in a perforated domain $\Omega^\epsilon \subset \Omega$. Here $J$ is a…

We prove the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for the variable exponent $p$-Laplacian with boundary data in $W^{1,p(x)}(\Omega)$ on a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^n$. Our main focus will be on an a.e. finite…
We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian $\mathcal{A}_\varepsilon=-\Delta$ in the domain $\Omega\setminus\bigcup_i K_{i\varepsilon}\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with holes $K_{i\varepsilon}$ and the Schr\"{o}dinger operator $\mathcal{A}=-\Delta+V$ in…
In contrast with the well-known methods of matching asymptotics and multiscale (or compound) asymptotics, the " functional analytic approach " of Lanza de Cristoforis (Analysis 28, 2008) allows to prove convergence of expansions around…
Inside a fixed bounded domain $\Omega$ of the plane, we look for the best compact connected set $K$, of given perimeter, in order to maximize the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega\setminus K)$. We discuss some of the qualitative…
In this paper we propose some approaches for finding of pointwise estimates of a solution of the Dirichlet boundary value problem $-\Delta u \pm |u|^{q-1} u = 0 $, $|u|=k$ when $|x|=d<1$ and $|u|=0$ when $|x|=1$ where $x\in \Omega = \{x|…
We settle the issue of well-posedness for the Dirichlet problem for a higher order elliptic system ${\mathcal L}(x,D_x)$ with complex-valued, bounded, measurable coefficients in a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$, with boundary data in Besov…
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation in an open disk. The uniqueness of solutions is ensured by the well-known weak maximum principle. We introduce a novel approach to demonstrate the existence of a solution…
The Dirichlet problem on a bounded planar domain is more readily understood and solved for the Laplace operator than it is for a Schrodinger operator. When the potential function is small, we might hope to approximate the solution to the…
