Explicit estimates for solutions of mixed elliptic problems

Analysis of PDEs 2014-10-28 v1

Abstract

We deal with the existence of quantitative estimates for solutions of mixed problems to an elliptic second order equation in divergence form with discontinuous coefficient. Our concern is to estimate the solutions with explicit constants, for domains in Rn\mathbb{R}^n (n2n\geq 2) of class C0,1C^{0,1}. The existence of LL^\infty and W1,qW^{1,q}-estimates is assured for q=2q=2 and any q<n/(n1)q<n/(n-1) (depending on the data), whenever the coefficient is only measurable and bounded. The proof method of the quantitative LL^\infty-estimates is based on the DeGiorgi technique developed by Stampacchia. By using the potential theory, we derive W1,pW^{1,p}-estimates for different ranges of the exponent pp depending on that the coefficient is either Dini-continuous or only measurable and bounded. In this process, we establish new existences of Green functions on such domains. The last but not least concern is to unify (whenever possible) the proofs of the estimates to the extreme Dirichlet and Neumann cases of the mixed problem.
