The book contains a systematic treatment of the qualitative theory of elliptic boundary value problems for linear and quasilinear second order equations in non-smooth domains. The authors concentrate on the following fundamental results: sharp estimates for strong and weak solutions, solvability of the boundary value problems, regularity assertions for solutions near singular points.Key features:* New the Hardy – Friedrichs – Wirtinger type inequalities as well as new integral inequalities related to the Cauchy problem for a differential equation.* Precise exponents of the solution decreasing rate near boundary singular points and best possible conditions for this.* The question about the influence of the coefficients smoothness on the regularity of solutions.* New existence theorems for the Dirichlet problem for linear and quasilinear equations in domains with conical points.* The precise power modulus of continuity at singular boundary point for solutions of the Dirichlet, mixed and the Robin problems.* The behaviour of weak solutions near conical point for the Dirichlet problem for m – Laplacian.* The behaviour of weak solutions near a boundary edge for the Dirichlet and mixed problem for elliptic quasilinear equations with triple degeneration.* Precise exponents of the solution decreasing rate near boundary singular points and best possible conditions for this.* The question about the influence of the coefficients smoothness on the regularity of solutions.* New existence theorems for the Dirichlet problem for linear and quasilinear equations in domains with conical points.* The precise power modulus of continuity at singular boundary point for solutions of the Dirichlet, mixed and the Robin problems.* The behaviour of weak solutions near conical point for the Dirichlet problem for m - Laplacian.* The behaviour of weak solutions near a boundary edge for the Dirichlet and mixed problem for elliptic quasilinear equations with triple degeneration.

This book is not a textbook, but rather a coherent collection of papers from the field of partial differential equations. Nevertheless we believe that it may very well serve as a good introduction into some topics of this classical field of analysis which, despite of its long history, is highly modem and well prospering. Richard Courant wrote in 1950: "It has always been a temptationfor mathematicians to present the crystallized product of their thought as a deductive general theory and to relegate the individual mathematical phenomenon into the role of an example. The reader who submits to the dogmatic form will be easily indoctrinated. Enlightenment, however, must come from an understanding of motives; live mathematical development springs from specific natural problems which can be easily understood, but whose solutions are difficult and demand new methods or more general significance. " We think that many, if not all, papers of this book are written in this spirit and will give the reader access to an important branch of analysis by exhibiting interest ing problems worth to be studied. Most of the collected articles have an extensive introductory part describing the history of the presented problems as well as the state of the art and offer a well chosen guide to the literature. This way the papers became lengthier than customary these days, but the level of presentation is such that an advanced graduate student should find the various articles both readable and stimulating.

This is the first monograph which systematically treats elliptic boundary value problems in domains of polyhedral type. The authors mainly describe their own recent results focusing on the Dirichlet problem for linear strongly elliptic systems of arbitrary order, Neumann and mixed boundary value problems for second order systems, and on boundary value problems for the stationary Stokes and Navier-Stokes systems. A feature of the book is the systematic use of Green's matrices. Using estimates for the elements of these matrices, the authors obtain solvability and regularity theorems for the solutions in weighted and non-weighted Sobolev and Holder spaces. Some classical problems of mathematical physics (Laplace and biharmonic equations, Lame system) are considered as examples. Furthermore, the book contains maximum modulus estimates for the solutions and their derivatives. The exposition is self-contained, and an introductory chapter provides background material on the theory of elliptic boundary value problems in domains with smooth boundaries and in domains with conical points. The book is destined for graduate students and researchers working in elliptic partial differential equations and applications.

This monograph is devoted to the development of a new approach to studying elliptic differential and integro-differential (pseudodifferential) equations and their boundary problems in non-smooth domains. This approach is based on a special representation of symbols of elliptic operators called wave factorization. In canonical domains, for example, the angle on a plane or a wedge in space, this yields a general solution, and then leads to the statement of a boundary problem. Wave factorization has also been used to obtain explicit formulas for solving some problems in diffraction and elasticity theory. Audience: This volume will be of interest to mathematicians, engineers, and physicists whose work involves partial differential equations, integral equations, operator theory, elasticity and viscoelasticity, and electromagnetic theory. It can also be recommended as a text for graduate and postgraduate students for courses in singular integral and pseudodifferential equations.

This book gives an up-to-date exposition on the theory of oblique derivative problems for elliptic equations. The modern analysis of shock reflection was made possible by the theory of oblique derivative problems developed by the author. Such problems also arise in many other physical situations such as the shape of a capillary surface and problems of optimal transportation. The author begins the book with basic results for linear oblique derivative problems and work through the theory for quasilinear and nonlinear problems. The final chapter discusses some of the applications. In addition, notes to each chapter give a history of the topics in that chapter and suggestions for further reading.
