This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…

We consider the space $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ of absolutely convergent Fourier series on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$. The norm on $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ is naturally defined by $\|f\|_{A}=\|\widehat{f}\|_{l^1}$, where $\widehat{f}$ is the Fourier…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded smooth domain (open and connected) in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Given $u_0\in L^2(\Omega)$, $g\in L^\infty(\Omega)$ and $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$, our purpose is to describe the asymptotic behavior of…

We establish $L^p$ solvability of the Dirichlet problem, for some finite $p$, in a 1-sided chord-arc domain $\Omega$ (i.e., a uniform domain with Ahlfors-David regular boundary), for elliptic equations of the form \[ Lu=-\text{div}(A\nabla…

We define two-dimensional Dirichlet spectrum (with respect to Euclidean norm) as D_2=\lambda\in\mathbf{R} | \exists \mathbf{v}=(v_1,v_2)\in \mathbf {R}^2: \limsup\limits_{t\rightarrow\infty} {t\cdot\psi_{v}^2(t)}=\lambda, where…
