Mixed elliptic problems for differential operators A in a domain Q with smooth boundary Y are studied in the form Au = f in Omega, T+/-u = g+/- on Y+/-, where Y+/- subset of Y are manifolds with a common boundary Z, such that Y- boolean OR Y+ = Y and Y- boolean AND Y+ = z, with boundary conditions T+/- on Y+/- (with smooth coefficients up to Z from the respective side) satisfying the Shapiro-Lopatinskij condition. We consider such problems in standard Sobolev spaces and characterise natural extra conditions on the interface Z with an analogue of Shapiro-Lopatinskij ellipticity for an associated transmission problem on the boundary; then the extended operator is Fredholm. The transmission operators on the boundary with respect to Z belong to a complete pseudo-differential calculus, a modification of the algebra of boundary value problems without the transmission property. We construct parametrices of elliptic elements in that calculus, and we obtain parametrices of the original mixed problems under additional conditions on the interface. We consider the Zaremba problem and other mixed problems for the Laplace operator, determine the number of extra conditions and calculate the index of associated Fredholm operators.

Given an algebra of pseudo-differential operators on a manifold, an elliptic element is said to be a reduction of orders, if it induces isomorphisms of Sobolev spaces with a corresponding shift of smoothness. Reductions of orders on a manifold with boundary refer to boundary value problems. We employ specific smooth symbols of arbitrary real orders and with parameters, and we show that the associated operators induce isomorphisms between Sobolev spaces on a given manifold with boundary. Such operators for integer orders have the transmission property and belong to the calculus of Boutet de Monvel [1], cf. also [9]. In general, they fit to the algebra of boundary value problems without the transmission property in the sense of [17] and [24]. Order reducing elements of the present kind are useful for constructing parametrices of mixed elliptic problems. We show that order reducing symbols have the Volterra property and are parabolic of anisotropy 1; analogous relations are formulated for arbitrary anisotropies. We then investigate parameter-dependent operators, apply a kernel cut-off construction with respect to the parameter and show that corresponding holomorphic operator-valued Mellin symbols reduce orders in weighted Sobolev spaces on a cone with boundary. We finally construct order reducing operators on a compact manifold with conical singularities and boundary
Parametrices of elliptic boundary value problems for differential operators belong to an algebra of pseudodifferential operators with the transmission property at the boundary. However, generically, smooth symbols on a manifold with boundary do not have this property, and several interesting applications require a corresponding more general calculus. We introduce here a new algebra of boundary value problems that contains Shapiro-Lopatinskij elliptic as well as global projection conditions; the latter ones are necessary, if an analogue of the Atiyah-Bott obstruction does not vanish. We show that every elliptic operator admits (up to a stabilisation) elliptic conditions of that kind. Corresponding boundary value problems are then Fredholm in adequate scales of spaces. Moreover, we construct parametrices in the calculus. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved
Ellipticity of a manifold with edges and boundary is connected to boundary and edge conditions that complete corresponding operators to Fredholm operators between weighted Sobolev spaces. We study a new parameter-dependent calculus of elliptic operators, where the interior symbols have specific properties on the boundary. We construct elliptic operators with a prescribed number of edge conditions and obtain isomorphisms in the scale of edge Sobolev spaces
The inhomogeneous partial derivative-equation is an inexhaustible source of locally unsolvable equations, subelliptic estimates and other phenomena in partial differential equations. Loosely speaking, for the analysis on complex manifolds with boundary nonelliptic problems are typical rather than elliptic ones. Using explicit integral representations we assign a Fredholm complex to the Dolbeault complex over an arbitrary bounded domain in C-n. (C) 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
We study boundary-contact problems for elliptic equations (and systems) with interfaces that have conical singularities. Such problems represent continuous operators between weighted Sobolev spaces and subspaces with asymptotics. Ellipticity is formulated in terms of extra transmission conditions along the interfaces with a control of the conormal symbolic structure near conical singularities. We show regularity and asymptotics of solutions in weighted spaces, and we construct parametrices. The result will be illustrated by a number of explicit examples. (c) 2004 Elsevier Inc.
