In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness theorem of the exterior Dirichlet problem for special Lagrangian equations with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity.
We consider the exterior Dirichlet problem for Monge-Ampère equation with prescribed asymptotic behavior. Based on earlier work by Caffarelli and the first named author, we complete the characterization of the existence and nonexistence of solutions in terms of their asymptotic behaviors.
In this paper, we study the exterior Dirichlet problem for the fully nonlinear elliptic equation $f(λ(D^{2}u))=1$. We obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions of existence of radial solutions with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity.
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem of Hessian quotient equations in exterior domains. By estimating the eigenvalues of the solution, the necessary and sufficient conditions on existence of radial solutions are obtained. Applying the solutions of ODE, the viscosity subsolutions and supersolutions are constructed and then the existence of viscosity solutions for exterior problems is established by the Perron's method.
In this paper, we mainly establish the existence and uniqueness theorem for solutions of the exterior Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear second-order elliptic equations related to the eigenvalues of the Hessian, with prescribed generalized symmetric asymptotic behavior at infinity. Moreover, we give some new results for the Hessian equations, Hessian quotient equations and the special Lagrangian equations, which have been studied previously.
In this paper, we consider the exterior Dirichlet problem for Hessian quotient equations with the right hand side $g$, where $g$ is a positive function and $g=1+O(|x|^{-β})$ near infinity, for some $β>2$. Under a prescribed generalized symmetric asymptotic behavior at infinity, we establish an existence and uniqueness theorem for viscosity solutions, by using comparison principles and Perron's method. This extends the previous results for Monge--Ampère equations and Hessian equations.
A mixed variational formulation of some problems in $L^2$-based Sobolev spaces is used to define the Newtonian and layer potentials for the Stokes system with $L^{\infty}$ coefficients on Lipschitz domains in ${\mathbb R}^3$. Then the solution of the exterior Dirichlet problem for the Stokes system with $L^{\infty}$ coefficients is presented in terms of these potentials and the inverse of the corresponding single layer operator.
In this paper, we consider the homogeneous complex k-Hessian equation in an exterior domain $\mathbb{C}^n\setminusΩ$. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the $C^{1,1}$ solution by constructing approximating solutions. The key point for us is to establish the uniform gradient estimate and the second order estimate.
This paper is devoted to the study of gradient estimates for the Dirichlet problem of the heat equation in the exterior domain of a compact set. Our results describe the time decay rates of the derivatives of solutions to the Dirichlet problem. Applications of these estimates to bilinear type commutator estimates for Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary condition in exterior domain are discussed too.
We treat the exterior Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations of the form $$f(λ(D^2u))=g(x),$$ with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity. The equations of this type had been studied extensively by Caffarelli--Nirenberg--Spruck \cite{Caffarelli1985}, Trudinger \cite{Trudinger1995} and many others, and there had been significant discussions on the solvability of the classical Dirichlet problem via the continuity method, under the assumption that $f$ is a concave function. In this paper, based on the Perron's method, we establish an exterior existence and uniquen…
Monge-Ampère equation $\det(D^2u)=f$ in two dimensional spaces is different in nature from their counterparts in higher dimensional spaces. In this article we employ new ideas to establish two main results for the Monge-Ampère equation defined either globally in $\mathbb R^2$ or outside a convex set. First we prove the existence of a global solution that satisfies a prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity, if $f$ is asymptotically close to a positive constant. Then we solve the exterior Dirichlet problem if data are given on the boundary of a convex set and at infinity.
In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness theorem for solutions of the exterior Dirichlet problem for Hessian quotient equations with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity. This extends the previous related results on the Monge-Ampère equations and on the Hessian equations, and rearranges them in a systematic way. Based on the Perron's method, the main ingredient of this paper is to construct some appropriate subsolutions of the Hessian quotient equation, which is realized by introducing some new quantities about the elementary symmetric functions and using them to analyze …
We establish quadratic asymptotics for solutions to special Lagrangian equations with supercritical phases in exterior domains. The method is based on an exterior Liouville type result for general fully nonlinear elliptic equations toward constant asymptotics of bounded Hessian, and also certain rotation arguments toward Hessian bound. Our unified approach also leads to quadratic asymptotics for convex solutions to Monge-Ampère equations (previously known), quadratic Hessian equations, and inverse harmonic Hessian equations over exterior domains.
In this note we study the boundary regularity of solutions to nonlocal Dirichlet problems of the form $Lu=0$ in $Ω$, $u=g$ in $\mathbb R^N\setminusΩ$, in non-smooth domains $Ω$. When $g$ is smooth enough, then it is easy to transform this problem into an homogeneous Dirichlet problem with a bounded right hand side, for which the boundary regularity is well understood. Here, we study the case in which $g\in C^{0,α}$, and establish the optimal Hölder regularity of $u$ up to the boundary. Our results extend previous results of Grubb for $C^\infty$ domains $Ω$.
In this paper, we are mainly concerned with the Dirichlet problems in exterior domains for the following elliptic equations: \begin{equation}\label{GPDE0} (-Δ)^{\fracα{2}}u(x)=f(x,u) \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \text{in} \,\,\,\, Ω_{r}:=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\,|\,|x|>r\} \end{equation} with arbitrary $r>0$, where $n\geq2$, $0<α\leq 2$ and $f(x,u)$ satisfies some assumptions. A typical case is the Hardy-Hénon type equations in exterior domains. We first derive the equivalence between \eqref{GPDE0} and the corresponding integral equations \begin{equation}\label{GIE0} u(x)=\int_{Ω_{r}}G_α(x,y)f(y,u(y)…
The three concepts of exact, null and approximate controllabilities are analyzed from the exterior of the Moore--Gibson--Thompson equation associated with the fractional Laplace operator subject to the nonhomogeneous Dirichlet type exterior condition.
In this paper we study the dependence of the Hölder estimates on the geometry of a domain with holes for the Neumann problem. For this, we study the Hölder regularity of the solutions to the Dirichlet and Neumann problems in the disk (and in the exterior of the disk), from which we get a relation between harmonic extensions and harmonic functions with prescribed Neumann condition on the boundary of the disk (for both interior and exterior problems).
In this paper, we study a class of special Lagrangian curvature potential equations and obtain the existence of smooth solutions for Dirichlet problem. The existence result is based on a priori estimates of global $C^{0}$, $C^{1}$ and $C^{2}$ norms of solutions under the assumption of existence of a subsolution.
We study the boundary value problem for the stationary Navier--Stokes system in two dimensional exterior domain. We prove that any solution of this problem with finite Dirichlet integral is uniformly bounded. Also we prove the existence theorem under zero total flux assumption.
We obtain a quantitative high order expansion at infinity of solutions for a family of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on exterior domain, refine the study of the asymptotic behavior of the Monge-Ampère equation, the special Lagrangian equation and other elliptic equations, and give the precise gap between exterior maximal (or minimal) gradient graph and the entire case.
We prove global well-posedness of the two-dimensional exterior Navier-Stokes equations for bounded initial data with a finite Dirichlet integral, subject to the non-slip boundary condition. As an application, we construct global solutions for asymptotically constant initial data and arbitrary large Reynolds numbers.
We obtain some fine gradient estimates near the boundary for solutions to fractional elliptic problems subject to exterior Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our results provide, in particular, the sign of the normal derivative of such solutions near the boundary of the underlying domain.
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of positive radial solutions for a class of fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations posed in the complement of a ball in $\mathbb R^N$, and equipped with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions.
We studied the asymptotic behavior of solutions with quadratic growth condition of a class of Lagrangian mean curvature equations $F_τ(λ(D^2u))=f(x)$ in exterior domain, where $f$ satisfies a given asymptotic behavior at infinity. When f(x) is a constant near infinity, it is not necessary to demand the quadratic growth condition anymore. These results are a kind of exterior Liouville theorem, and can also be regarded as an extension of theorems of Pogorelov, Flanders and Yuan.
It is well-known that a celebrated Jörgens-Calabi-Pogorelov theorem for Monge-Ampère equations states that any classical (viscosity) convex solution of $\det(D^2u)=1$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ must be a quadratic polynomial. Therefore, it is an interesting topic to study the existence and uniqueness theorem of such fully nonlinear partial differential equations' Dirichlet problems on exterior domains with suitable asymptotic conditions at infinity. As a continuation of the works of Caffarelli-Li for Monge-Ampère equation and of Bao-Li-Li for $k$-Hessian equations, this paper is devoted to the solvabil…
In this paper we investigate the uniqueness of solutions of the steady planar Navier-Stokes equations with different boundary conditions in the exterior domain. For a class of incompressible flow with constant vorticity, we prove the uniqueness of the solution under the enhanced Navier boundary conditions. At the same time, some counterexamples are given to show that the uniqueness of the solution fails under the Navier boundary conditions. For the general incompressible flow with Dirichlet boundary condition, we prove various sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of the solution.
In this paper, we study the exterior problem for the maximal surface equation. We obtain the precise asymptotic behavior of the exterior solution at infinity. And we prove that the exterior Dirichlet problem is uniquely solvable given admissible boundary data and prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity.
We prove \emph{global} uniqueness for an inverse problem for the fractional conductivity equation on domains that are bounded in one direction. The conductivities are assumed to be isotropic and nontrivial in the exterior of the domain, while the data is given in the form of partial Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DN) maps measured in nondisjoint open subsets of the exterior. This can be seen as the fractional counterpart of the classical inverse conductivity problem. The proof is based on a unique continuation property (UCP) for the DN maps and an exterior determination method from the partial exterior…
