Abstract: The present paper commences the study of higher order differential equations in composition form. Specifically, we consider the equation Lu=Div B^*

abla(aDiv A

abla u)=0, where A and B are elliptic matrices with complex-valued bounded measurable coefficients and a is an accretive function. Elliptic operators of this type naturally arise, for instance, via a pull-back of the bilaplacian Delta^2 from a Lipschitz domain to the upper half-space. More generally, this form is preserved under a Lipschitz change of variables, contrary to the case of divergence-form fourth order differential equations. We establish well-posedness of the Dirichlet problem for the equation Lu=0, with boundary data in L^2, and with optimal estimates in terms of nontangential maximal functions and square functions.
