Dirichlet and Neumann problems for planar domains with parameter

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let Gamma(cdot,lambda) be smooth, i.e., mathcalCinfty, embeddings from onto , where Omega and Omegalambda are bounded domains with smooth boundary in the complex plane and lambda varies in I=[0,1]. Suppose that Gamma is smooth on and f is a smooth function on partialOmegaimesI. Let u(cdot,lambda) be the harmonic functions on Omegalambda with boundary values f(cdot,lambda). We show that u(Gamma(z,lambda),lambda) is smooth on . Our main result is proved for suitable H"older spaces for the Dirichlet and Neumann problems with parameter. By observing that the regularity of solutions of the two problems with parameter is not local, we show the existence of smooth embeddings Gamma(cdot,lambda) from , the closure of the unit disc, onto such that Gamma is smooth on and real analytic at , but for every family of Riemann mappings R(cdot,lambda) from onto , the function R(Gamma(z,lambda),lambda) is not real analytic at .


Let \(\Omega^\lambda\) \((0\leq\lambda\leq 1)\) be a family of bounded domains in the complex plane of class \(C^{k+1+\alpha}\), where \(k\geq 0\) is an integer and \(\alpha\in (0,1)\). Let also \(f^\lambda,\;g^\lambda\) be \(C^\alpha\) functions on the boundary \(\partial\Omega^\lambda\). The authors study the family of Dirichlet problems NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \Delta u^\lambda =0\text{ in }\Omega^\lambda,\quad u^\lambda=f^\lambda\text{ on }\partial \Omega^\lambda\tag{1}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE and the family of Neumann problems NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \Delta v^\lambda =0\text{ in }\Omega^\lambda,\quad \partial_{\nu^\lambda} v^\lambda=g^\lambda\text{ on }\partial \Omega^\lambda\tag{2}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE together with the compatibility conditions NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \int_{\partial\Omega^\lambda}g^\lambda d\sigma^\lambda=0,\quad \int_{\partial\Omega^\lambda}v^\lambda d\sigma^\lambda=0.\tag{3}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE NEWLINENEWLINEThe first major result of the paper is as follows: Let \(j,k,l\geq 0\) be integers such that \(k\geq j\), \(k+1\geq l\geq j\). Let \(\Omega\subset{\mathbb C}\) be a bounded domain with \(C^{k+1+\alpha}\) boundary. Let \(\Gamma^\lambda\), \(\lambda\in [0,1]\), be a \(C^{k+1+\alpha,j}\) embedding of \(\overline{\Omega}\) into \(\overline{\Omega^\lambda}\). Assume \(f^\lambda\circ \Gamma^\lambda\in C^{l+\alpha,j}(\partial\Omega)\) and \(g^\lambda\circ \Gamma^\lambda\in C^{k+\alpha,j}(\partial \Omega)\). Finally, let \(u^\lambda\in C^{\alpha}(\overline{\Omega^\lambda})\) be the unique solution of (1) and let \(v^\lambda\in C^1(\Omega^\lambda)\) be the unique solution of (2) - (3). Then \(u^\lambda\circ \Gamma^\lambda\in C^{l+\alpha,j}(\overline\Omega)\) and \(v^\lambda\circ \Gamma^\lambda\in C^{k+1+\alpha,j}(\overline\Omega)\). NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE As a consequence, the authors establish the failure of the local Schwarz principle with parameter in the following formulation: There exist embeddings \(\Gamma(\cdot,\lambda)\) from the closed unit disc \(\overline{\mathbb D}\) onto \(\overline{\Omega^\lambda}\) such that \(\Gamma\) is of class \(C^\infty\) on \(E=\overline{\mathbb D}\times[0,1]\) and real analytic at \((1,0)\in E\) such that \(R(\Gamma(z,\lambda),\lambda)\) is not real analytic at \((1,0)\in E\) for every family of Riemann mappings \(R(\cdot,\lambda)\) from \(\overline{\Omega^\lambda}\) onto \(\overline{\mathbb D}\).
