On the limit Sobolev regularity for Dirichlet and Neumann problems on Lipschitz domains

Abstract: We construct a bounded

C^{1}

domain

O m e g a

in

R^{n}

for which the

H^{3 / 2}

regularity for the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the Laplacian cannot be improved, that is, there exists

f

in

C^{i n f t y} (o v e r l i n e O m e g a)

such that the solution of

D e l t a u = f

in

O m e g a

and either

u = 0

on

p a r t i a l O m e g a

or

p a r t i a l_{n} u = 0

on

p a r t i a l O m e g a

is contained in

H^{3 / 2} (O m e g a)

but not in

H^{3 / 2 + v a r e p s i l o n} (O m e g a)

for any

e p s i l o n > 0

. An analogous result holds for

L^{p}

Sobolev spaces with

p i n (1, i n f t y)

.
