Elliptic and Parabolic Boundary Value Problems in Weighted Function Spaces

Abstract

In this paper we study elliptic and parabolic boundary value problems with inhomogeneous boundary conditions in weighted function spaces of Sobolev, Bessel potential, Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type. As one of the main results, we solve the problem of weighted L_q-maximal regularity in weighted Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces for the parabolic case, where the spatial weight is a power weight in the Muckenhoupt A_∞-class. In the Besov space case we have the restriction that the microscopic parameter equals to q. Going beyond the A_p-range, where p is the integrability parameter of the Besov or Triebel-Lizorkin space under consideration, yields extra flexibility in the sharp regularity of the boundary inhomogeneities. This extra flexibility allows us to treat rougher boundary data and provides a quantitative smoothing effect on the interior of the domain. The main ingredient is an analysis of anisotropic Poisson operators.
