Neumann problem and one oblique-derivative problem for an improperly elliptic equation

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We study the problem of solvability of an inhomogeneous Neumann problem and an oblique-derivative problem for an improperly elliptic scalar differential equation with complex coefficients in a bounded domain. A model case in which the domain is a unit disk and the equation does not contain lower-order terms is investigated. It is shown that the classes of boundary data for which these problems are uniquely solvable in a Sobolev space are formed by the spaces of functions with exponentially decreasing Fourier coefficients.
