Functional calculus on weighted Sobolev spaces for the Laplacian on rough domains

We study the Laplace operator on domains subject to Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. We show that these operators admit a bounded $H^{\infty}$-functional calculus on weighted Sobolev spaces, where the weights are powers of the distance to the boundary. Our analysis applies to bounded $C^{1,λ}$-domains with $λ\in[0,1]$, revealing a crucial trade-off: lower domain regularity can be compensated by enlarging the weight exponent. As a primary consequence, we establish maximal regularity for the corresponding heat equation. This extends the well-posedness theory for parabolic equations to domains with minimal smoothness, where classical methods are inapplicable.

$R$-boundedness of Poisson operators

We investigate the $R$-boundedness of parameter-dependent families of Poisson operators on the half-space $\mathbb R^n_+$ in various scales of function spaces. Applications concern maximal $L_q$-regularity for boundary value problems with dynamic boundary conditions.

Functional calculus on weighted Sobolev spaces for the Laplacian on the half-space

In this paper, we consider the Laplace operator on the half-space with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. We prove that this operator admits a bounded $H^\infty$-calculus on Sobolev spaces with power weights measuring the distance to the boundary. These weights do not necessarily belong to the class of Muckenhoupt $A_p$ weights. We additionally study the corresponding Dirichlet and Neumann heat semigroup. It is shown that these semigroups, in contrast to the $L^p$-case, have polynomial growth. Moreover, maximal regularity results for the heat equation are derived on inhomogeneous and homogeneous weighted Sobolev spaces.

A discrete framework for the interpolation of Banach spaces

We develop a discrete framework for the interpolation of Banach spaces, which contains the well-known real and complex interpolation methods, but also more recent methods like the Rademacher, $γ$- and $\ell^q$-interpolation methods. Our framework is based on a sequential structure imposed on a Banach space, which allows us to deduce properties of interpolation methods from properties of sequential structures. Our framework has a formulation modelled after both the real and the complex interpolation methods. This enables us to extend various results, previously known only for either the real or the complex interpolation method, to all interpolation methods that fit into our framework. As applications, we prove an interpolation result for analytic operator families and an interpolation result for intersections.

Cauchy problem for singular-degenerate porous medium type equations: well-posedness and Sobolev regularity

Motivated by models for biofilm growth, we consider Cauchy problems for quasilinear reaction diffusion equations where the diffusion coefficient has a porous medium type degeneracy as well as a singularity. We prove results on the well-posedness and Sobolev regularity of solutions. The proofs are based on m-accretive operator theory, kinetic formulations and Fourier analytic techniques.

On the trace embedding and its applications to evolution equations

In this paper we consider traces at initial times for functions with mixed time-space smoothness. Such results are often needed in the theory of evolution equations. Our result extends and unifies many previous results. Our main improvement is that we can allow general interpolation couples. The abstract results are applied to regularity problems for fractional evolution equations and stochastic evolution equation, where uniform trace estimates on the half-line are shown.

Stein interpolation for the real interpolation method

We prove a complex formulation of the real interpolation method, showing that the real and complex interpolation methods are not inherently real or complex. Using this complex formulation, we prove Stein interpolation for the real interpolation method. We apply this theorem to interpolate weighted $L^p$-spaces and the sectoriality of closed operators with the real interpolation method.

Elliptic and Parabolic Boundary Value Problems in Weighted Function Spaces

In this paper we study elliptic and parabolic boundary value problems with inhomogeneous boundary conditions in weighted function spaces of Sobolev, Bessel potential, Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type. As one of the main results, we solve the problem of weighted $L_{q}$-maximal regularity in weighted Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces for the parabolic case, where the spatial weight is a power weight in the Muckenhoupt $A_{\infty}$-class. In Besov space case we have the restriction that the microscopic parameter equals to $q$. Going beyond the $A_{p}$-range, where $p$ is the integrability parameter of the Besov or Triebel-Lizorkin space under consideration, yields extra flexibility in the sharp regularity of the boundary inhomogeneities. This extra flexibility allows us to treat rougher boundary data and provides a quantitative smoothing effect on the interior of the domain. The main ingredient is an analysis of anisotropic Poisson operators.

The heat equation with rough boundary conditions and holomorphic functional calculus

In this paper we consider the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a smooth domain. We prove that it has a bounded $H^\infty$-calculus on weighted $L^p$-spaces for power weights which fall outside the classical class of $A_p$-weights. Furthermore, we characterize the domain of the operator and derive several consequences on elliptic and parabolic regularity. In particular, we obtain a new maximal regularity result for the heat equation with rough inhomogeneous boundary data.

Second Order Operators Subject to Dirichlet Boundary Conditions in Weighted Triebel-Lizorkin Spaces: Parabolic Problems

In this paper we consider second order parabolic partial differential equations subject to the Dirichlet boundary condition on smooth domains. We establish weighted $L_{q}$-maximal regularity in weighted Triebel-Lizorkin spaces for such parabolic problems with inhomogeneous boundary data. The weights that we consider are power weights in time and space, and yield flexibility in the optimal regularity of the initial-boundary data, allow to avoid compatibility conditions at the boundary and provide a smoothing effect. In particular, we can treat rough inhomogeneous boundary data.

Maximal Regularity with Weights for Parabolic Problems with Inhomogeneous Boundary Conditions

In this paper we establish weighted $L^{q}$-$L^{p}$-maximal regularity for linear vector-valued parabolic initial-boundary value problems with inhomogeneous boundary conditions of static type. The weights we consider are power weights in time and in space, and yield flexibility in the optimal regularity of the initial-boundary data and allow to avoid compatibility conditions at the boundary. The novelty of the followed approach is the use of weighted anisotropic mixed-norm Banach space-valued function spaces of Sobolev, Bessel potential, Triebel-Lizorkin and Besov type, whose trace theory is also subject of study.

The UMD property for Musielak--Orlicz spaces

In this paper we show that Musielak--Orlicz spaces are UMD spaces under the so-called $Δ_2$ condition on the generalized Young function and its complemented function. We also prove that if the measure space is divisible, then a Musielak--Orlicz space has the UMD property if and only if it is reflexive. As a consequence we show that reflexive variable Lebesgue spaces $L^{p(\cdot)}$ are UMD spaces.

Weighted Estimates for Operator-Valued Fourier Multipliers

We establish Littlewood-Paley decompositions for Muckenhoupt weights in the setting of UMD spaces. As a consequence we obtain two-weight variants of the Mikhlin multiplier theorem for operator-valued multipliers. We also show two-weight estimates for multipliers satisfying Hörmander type conditions.

Complex interpolation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the half line

We prove results on complex interpolation of vector-valued Sobolev spaces over the half-line with Dirichlet boundary condition. Motivated by applications in evolution equations, the results are presented for Banach space-valued Sobolev spaces with a power weight. The proof is based on recent results on pointwise multipliers in Bessel potential spaces, for which we present a new and simpler proof as well. We apply the results to characterize the fractional domain spaces of the first derivative operator on the half line.

Difference Norms for Vector-Valued Bessel Potential Spaces with an Application to Pointwise Multipliers

In this paper we prove a randomized difference norm characterization for Bessel potential spaces with values in UMD Banach spaces. The main ingredients are $\mathcal{R}$-boundedness results for Fourier multiplier operators, which are of independent interest. As an application we characterize the pointwise multiplier property of the indicator function of the half-space on these spaces. All results are proved in the setting of weighted spaces.

Banach Space-Valued Extensions of Linear Operators on $L^{\infty}$

Let $E$ and $G$ be two Banach function spaces, let $T \in \mathcal{L}(E,Y)$, and let ${\langle X,Y \rangle}$ be a Banach dual pair. In this paper we give conditions for which there exists a (necessarily unique) bounded linear operator $T_{Y} \in \mathcal{L}(E(Y),G(Y))$ with the property that \[ {\langle x,T_{Y}e \rangle} = T{\langle x,e \rangle}, \quad\quad\quad e \in E(Y), x \in X. \] Our first main result states that, in case ${\langle X,Y \rangle} = {\langle Y^{*}, Y \rangle}$ with $Y$ a reflexive Banach space, for the existence of $T_{Y}$ it sufficient that $T$ is dominated by a positive operator. Our second main result concerns the case that $T$ is an adjoint operator on $L^{\infty}(A)$: we suppose that $E = L^{\infty}(A)$ for a semi-finite measure space $(A,\mathscr{A},μ)$, that ${\langle F, G \rangle}$ is a Köthe dual pair, and that $T$ is $σ(L^{\infty}(A),L^{1}(A))$-to-$σ(G,F)$ continuous. Then $T_{Y}$ exists provided that $T$ is dominated by a positive operator, in which case $T_{Y}$ is $σ(L^{\infty}(A;Y),L^{1}(A;X))$-to-$σ(G(Y),F \tilde{\otimes} X)$ continuous; here $F \tilde{\otimes} X$ denotes the closure of $F \otimes X$ in $F(X)$. We also consider situations in which the existence is automatic and we furthermore show that in certain situations it is necessary that $T$ is regular. As an application of this result we consider conditional expectation on Banach space-valued $L^{\infty}$-spaces.
