In this paper, we characterize the rectifiability (both uniform and not) of an Ahlfors regular set, E, of arbitrary co-dimension by the behavior of a regularized distance function in the complement of that set. In particular, we establish a…

In nice environments, such as Lipschitz or chord-arc domains, it is well-known that the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for an elliptic operator in $L^p$, for some finite $p$, is equivalent to the fact that the associated elliptic…

This paper investigates the Dirichlet problem for a non-divergence form elliptic operator $L$ in a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^d$. Under certain conditions on the coefficients of $L$, we first establish the existence of a unique Green's…

We study the existence of the Green function for an elliptic system in divergence form $-\nabla\cdot a\nabla$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, with $d>2$. The tensor field $a=a(x)$ is only assumed to be bounded and $\lambda$-coercive. For almost every…

We study the boundary regularity of solutions to divergence form operators which are small perturbations of operators for which the boundary regularity of solutions is known. An operator is a small perturbation of another operator if the…

We consider a random, uniformly elliptic coefficient field $a$ on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The distribution $\langle \cdot \rangle$ of the coefficient field is assumed to be stationary. Delmotte and Deuschel showed that the gradient and…

Take an open domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ whose boundary may be composed of pieces of different dimensions. For instance, $\Omega$ can be a ball on $\mathbb R^3$, minus one of its diameters $D$, or $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^3$ could…

We characterize the model spaces $K_\Theta$ in which functions with smooth boundary extensions are dense. It is shown that such approximations are possible if and only if the singular measure associated to the singular inner factor of…

We show an example of a sequence of elliptic operators in the unit ball with drifts that diverge as the inverse distance to the boundary, for which we do not get uniform upper estimates for the Green's function with the pole at the origin.…

We prove optimal annealed decay estimates on the derivative and mixed second derivative of the elliptic Green functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ for random stationary measurable coefficients that satisfy a certain logarithmic Sobolev inequality…

Given an elliptic differential operator L of second order with smooth coefficients in a bounded domain with smooth boundary. We show that if the coefficients are H\"older-continuous up to the boundary and the boundary is…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, be a 1-sided non-tangentially accessible domain (i.e., quantitatively open and path-connected) satisfiying the capacity density condition. Let $L_0 u=-\mathrm{div}(A_0 \nabla u)$,…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, be a 1-sided non-tangentially accessible domain (aka uniform domain), that is, $\Omega$ satisfies the interior Corkscrew and Harnack chain conditions, which are respectively…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we prove $L^p$ estimates for a regularized Green's function in three dimensions. We then establish new estimates for the discrete Green's function and obtain some positivity results. In particular,…

Consider a discrete uniformly elliptic divergence form equation on the $d$ dimensional lattice $\Z^d$ with random coefficients. It has previously been shown that if the random environment is translational invariant, then the averaged…

In this paper, we provide a new means of establishing solvability of the Dirichlet problem on Lipschitz domains, with measurable data, for second order elliptic, non-symmetric divergence form operators. We show that a certain optimal…

We present a survey of recent results of the functional analysis allowing to solve PDEs in a large class of domains with irregular boundaries. We extend the previously introduced concept of admissible domains with a d-set boundary on the…

Many geometric and analytic properties of sets hinge on the properties of harmonic measure, notoriously missing for sets of higher co-dimension. The aim of this manuscript is to develop a version of elliptic theory, associated to a linear…

In this paper, we consider the elliptic operators $\mathcal{L}_\varepsilon = -\nabla\cdot (A(X/\varepsilon) \nabla )$ with periodic coefficients in a bounded domain $\Omega$ without any local smoothness assumption on $A = A(Y)$, where…

For $n \geq 2$, we consider the operator $L_A = -\mathrm{div }(A(\cdot)\nabla)$, where $A$ is a uniformly elliptic $(n+1)\times(n+1)$ matrix with variable coefficients, a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and the associated…
