The double-layer potential plays an important role in solving boundary value problems for elliptic equations, and in the study of which for a certain equation, the properties of the fundamental solutions of the given equation are used. All…
We consider an inverse problem for the double layer potential which can be formulated, somewhat loosely, as follows. For which smoothly bounded domains D in Euclidian space does the operator J, which maps a function on the boundary to the…
Serrin's symmetry theorem shows that the classical overdetermined torsion problem forces the domain to be a ball. Extending this rigidity statement to merely Lipschitz (and more generally rough) domains in the weak formulation has been a…
In this short note, we consider the Dirichlet problem associated to an even order elliptic system with antisymmetric first order potential. Given any continuous boundary data, we show that weak solutions are continuous up to boundary.
In this paper second-order elliptic and parabolic partial differential systems are considered on $C^1$ domains. Existence and uniqueness results are obtained in terms of Sobolev spaces with weights so that we allow the derivatives of the…
The main purpose of this paper is to address some questions concerning boundary value problems related to the Laplacian and bi-Laplacian operators, set in the framework of classical $H^s$ Sobolev spaces on a bounded Lipschitz domain of R^N.…
We discuss the $\zeta-$regularized determinant of elliptic boundary value problems on a line segment. Our framework is applicable for separated and non-separated boundary conditions.
We consider inverse boundary value problems for the Schrodinger equations in two dimensions. Within less regular classes of potentials, we establish a conditional stability estimate of logarithmic order. Moreover we prove the uniqueness…
We offer some theorems, mainly of finiteness, for certain patterns in elliptical billiards, related to periodic trajectories. For instance, if two players hit a ball at a given position and with directions forming a fixed angle in…
In this paper we study the positive solutions of sub linear elliptic equations with a Hardy potential which is singular at the boundary. By means of ODE techniques a fairly complete picture of the class of radial solutions is given. Local…
We consider a fractional elliptic equation in an unbounded set with both Dirichlet and fractional normal derivative datum prescribed. We prove that the domain and the solution are necessarily radially symmetric. The extension of the result…
In this paper we are concerned with the local well-posedness of the unsteady potential flows near a space corner of right angle, which could be formulated as an initial-boundary value problem of a hyperbolic equation of second order in a…
The classical dynamics of the isotropic two-dimensional harmonic oscillator confined by an elliptic hard wall is discussed. The interplay between the harmonic potential with circular symmetry and the boundary with elliptical symmetry does…

A new method is introduced for studying boundary value problems for a class of linear PDEs with {\it variable} coefficients. This method is based on ideas recently introduced by the author for the study of boundary value problems for PDEs…
This paper is devoted to establishing results for semilinear elliptic boundary value problems where the solvability of problems subject to {\it No Flux} boundary conditions follows from the solvability of related {\it Dirichlet} boundary…
It is shown that the two-dimensional Mullins-Sekerka problem is well-posed in all subcritical Sobolev spaces $H^r(\mathbb{R})$ with $r\in(3/2,2).$ This is the first result where this issue is established in an unbounded geometry. The…
Boundary value problems for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations, with an Orlicz type growth and L^1 right-hand side are considered. Both Dirichlet and Neumann problems are contemplated. Existence and uniqueness of generalized…
We consider overdetermined problems related to the fractional capacity. In particular we study $s$-harmonic functions defined in unbounded exterior sets or in bounded annular sets, and having a level set parallel to the boundary. We first…
