We get the interior partial regularity by the p-harmonic approximation method together with the technique used to get the decay estimation on some Degenerate elliptic equations and the obstacle problem by Tan and Yan. In particular, we directly get the optimal regularity.展开更多

L 1, L 2, L 3, L 4 are four characteristics with the slopes ?H 2(x)/H 1(y), H 2(x)/H 1(y),?H 2(x)/H 1(y),H 2(x)/H 1(y) (H 1(y) = √|K 1(y)|, H 2(x) = √|K 2(x)| in {y < 0}) passing through the points z = x + iy = ?1, 0, 0, 1 respectively. And the boundary condition possesses the form $$\frac{1}{2}\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial \nu }} = \frac{1}{{H(x,y)}}\operatorname{Re} \left[ {\overline {\lambda (z)} u_{\tilde z} } \right] = r(z), z \in \Gamma \cup L_1 \cup L_4 , \operatorname{Im} \left[ {\overline {\lambda (z)} u_{\tilde z} } \right]\left| {_{z = z_l } } \right. = b_l ,l = 1,2, u( - 1) = b_0 ,u(1) = b_3 ,$$ in which z 1, z 2 are the intersection points of L 1, L 2, L 3, L 4 respectively. The above equations can be called the general Chaplygin-Rassias equations, which include the Chaplygin-Rassias equations $$K_1 (y)(M_2 (x)u_x )_x + M_1 (x)(K_2 (y)u_y )_y + r(x,y)u = f(x,y), in D$$ as their special case. The above boundary value problem includes the Tricomi problem of the Chaplygin equation: K(y)u xx+u yy = 0 with the boundary condition u(z) = ?(z) on Γ ∪ L 1 ∪ L 4 as a special case. Firstly some estimates and the existence of solutions of the corresponding boundary value problems for the degenerate elliptic and hyperbolic equations of second order are discussed. Secondly, the solvability of the Tricomi problem, the oblique derivative problem and Frankl problem for the general Chaplygin-Rassias equations are proved. The used method in this paper is different from those in other papers, because the new notations W(z) = W(x + iy) = $u_{\tilde z} $ = [H 1(y)u x ? iH 2(x)u y]/2 in the elliptic domain and W(z) = W(x+jy) = $u_{\tilde z} $ =[H 1(y)u x ? jH 2(x)u y]/2 in the hyperbolic domain are introduced for the first time, such that the second order equations of mixed type can be reduced to the mixed complex equations of first order with singular coefficients. And thirdly, the advantage of complex analytic method is used, otherwise the complex analytic method cannot be applied.展开更多

In the application part, the unique continuation properties and Carleman estimates for finite or infinite systems of quasielliptic partial differential equations are studied.展开更多
