On the Dirichlet problem in cylindrical domains for evolution Oleǐnik-Radkevič PDE's: a Tikhonov-type theorem (Q2327420)

The author recalls the notion of a $\sigma^*$-harmonic space and proves that two linear second order differential operators $\mathcal{L}_0$ and $\mathcal{L}$, that satisfy the Oleǐnik-Radkevič rank hypoellipticity condition, endow, respectively, in $X$ and $X \times \mathbb R$, where $X$ is an open set of $\mathbb R^N$, being $N \geq 2$. In this line, the author derives the existence of a generalized solution in the sense of Perron-Wiener in both settings. We point out that the author, combining the Tikhonov-type theorem with a corollary of a Wiener-Landis-type criterion for the Kolmogorov-type operators, establishes a geometric boundary regularity criterion for a degenerate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators.
