We use the method of layer potentials to study the $R_2$ Regularity problem and the $D_2$ Dirichlet problem for second order elliptic equations of the form $\mathcal{L}u=0$, with lower order coefficients, in bounded Lipschitz domains. For…

We consider mean curvature flow of an initial surface that is the graph of a function over some domain of definition in $R^n$. If the graph is not complete then we impose a constant Dirichlet boundary condition at the boundary of the…

We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…
