Abstract: We consider parabolic operators of the form partial_t+mathcal{L}, mathcal{L}=-mbox{div}, A(X,t) abla, in mathbbR+n+2:=(X,t)=(x,xn+1,t)inmathbbRnimesmathbbRimesmathbbR:xn+1>0, ngeq1. We assume that A is a (n+1)imes(n+1)-dimensional matrix which is bounded, measurable, uniformly elliptic and complex, and we assume, in addition, that the entries of A are independent of the spatial coordinate xn+1 as well as of the time coordinate t. For such operators we prove that the boundedness and invertibility of the corresponding layer potential operators are stable on L2(mathbbRn+1,mathbbC)=L2(partialmathbbR+n+2,mathbbC) under complex, Linfty perturbations of the coefficient matrix. Subsequently, using this general result, we establish solvability of the Dirichlet, Neumann and Regularity problems for partialt+mathcalL, by way of layer potentials and with data in L2, assuming that the coefficient matrix is a small complex perturbation of either a constant matrix or of a real and symmetric matrix.
