Green's functions for elliptic and parabolic systems with Robin-type boundary conditions

The aim of this paper is to investigate Green's function for parabolic and elliptic systems satisfying a possibly nonlocal Robin-type boundary condition. We construct Green's function for parabolic systems with time-dependent coefficients satisfying a possibly nonlocal Robin-type boundary condition assuming that weak solutions of the system are locally Hölder continuous in the interior of the domain, and as a corollary we construct Green's function for elliptic system with a Robin-type condition. Also, we obtain Gaussian bound for Robin Green's function under an additional assumption that weak solutions of Robin problem are locally bounded up to the boundary. We provide some examples satisfying such a local boundedness property, and thus have Gaussian bounds for their Green's functions.

Green's function for second order parabolic systems with Neumann boundary condition

We study the Neumann Green's function for second order parabolic systems in divergence form with time-dependent measurable coefficients in a cylindrical domain $\mathcal{Q}=Ω\times (-\infty,\infty)$, where $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is an open connected set such that a multiplicative Sobolev embedding inequality holds there. Such a domain includes, for example, a bounded Sobolev extension domain, a special Lipschitz domain, and an unbounded domain with compact Lipschitz boundary. We construct the Neumann Green's function in $\mathcal{Q}$ under the assumption that weak solutions of the systems satisfy an interior Hölder continuity estimate. We also establish global Gaussian bounds for Neumann Green's function under an additional assumption that weak solutions with zero Neumann data satisfy a local boundedness estimate. In the scalar case, such a local boundedness estimate is a consequence of De Giorgi-Moser-Nash theory holds for equations with bounded measurable coefficients in Sobolev extension domains, while in the vectorial case, one may need to impose further regularity assumptions on the coefficients of the system as well as on the domain to obtain such an estimate. We present a unified approach valid for both the scalar and vectorial cases and discuss some applications of our results including the construction of Neumann functions for second order elliptic systems with measurable coefficients in two dimensional domains.

Neumann functions for second order elliptic systems with measurable coefficients

We study Neumann functions for divergence form, second order elliptic systems with bounded measurable coefficients in a bounded Lipschitz domain or a Lipschitz graph domain. We establish existence, uniqueness, and various estimates for the Neumann functions under the assumption that weak solutions of the system enjoy interior Hölder continuity. Also, we establish global pointwise bounds for the Neumann functions under the assumption that weak solutions of the system satisfy a certain natural local boundedness estimate. Moreover, we prove that such a local boundedness estimate for weak solutions of the system is in fact equivalent to the global pointwise bound for the Neumann function. We present a unified approach valid for both the scalar and the vectorial cases.
