In $mathbb R^d$, $d geq 3$, consider the divergence and the non-divergence form operators begin{equation} tag{$i$} - abla cdot a cdot abla + b cdot abla, end{equation} begin{equation} tag{$ii$} - a cdot abla^2 + b cdot abla, end{equation} where $a=I+c mathsf{f} otimes mathsf{f}$, the vector fields $ abla_i mathsf{f}$ ($i=1,2,dots,d$) and $b$ are form-bounded (this includes the sub-critical class $[L^d + L^infty]^d$ as well as vector fields having critical-order singularities). We characterize quantitative dependence on $c$ and the values of the form-bounds of the $L^q rightarrow W^{1,qd/(d-2)}$ regularity of the resolvents of the operator realizations of ($i$), ($ii$) in $L^q$, $q geq 2 vee ( d-2)$ as (minus) generators of positivity preserving $L^infty$ contraction $C_0$ semigroups. The latter allows to run an iteration procedure $L^p rightarrow L^infty$ that yields associated with ($i$), ($ii$) $L^q$-strong Feller semigroups.
This paper discusses some regularity of almost periodic solutions of the Poissons equation $-Delta u = f$ in $mathbb{R}^n$, where $f$ is an almost periodic function. It has been proved by Sibuya [Almost periodic solutions of Poissons equation. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 28:195--198, 1971.] that if $u$ is a bounded continuous function and solves the Poissons equation in the distribution sense, then $u$ is an almost periodic function. In this work, we relax the assumption of the usual boundedness into boundedness in the sense of distribution which we refer to as a bounded generalized function. The set of bounded generalized functions are wider than the set of usual bounded functions. Then, upon assuming that $u$ is a bounded generalized function and solves the Poissons equation in the distribution sense, we prove that this solution is bounded in the usual sense, continuous and almost periodic. Moreover, we show that the first partial derivatives of the solution $partial u/ partial x_i$, $i=1, ldots, n$, are also continuous, bounded, and almost periodic functions. The technique is based on extending a representation formula using Greens function for Poissons equation for solutions in the distribution sense. Some useful properties of distributions are also shown that can be used to study other elliptic problems.
We prove that a probability solution of the stationary Kolmogorov equation generated by a first order perturbation $v$ of the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck operator $L$ possesses a highly integrable density with respect to the Gaussian measure satisfying the non-perturbed equation provided that $v$ is sufficiently integrable. More generally, a similar estimate is proved for solutions to inequalities connected with Markov semigroup generators under the curvature condition $CD(theta,infty)$. For perturbations from $L^p$ an analog of the Log-Sobolev inequality is obtained. It is also proved in the Gaussian case that the gradient of the density is integrable to all powers. We obtain dimension-free bounds on the density and its gradient, which also covers the infinite-dimensional case.
In this paper, we develop the Littman-Stampacchia-Weinberger duality approach to obtain global W^1,p estimates for a class of elliptic problems involving Leray-Hardy operators and measure sources in a distributional framework associated with a dual formulation with a specific weight function.
This paper establishes global weighted Calderon-Zygmund type regularity estimates for weak solutions of a class of generalized Stokes systems in divergence form. The focus of the paper is on the case that the coefficients in the divergence-form Stokes operator consist of symmetric and skew-symmetric parts, which are both discontinuous. Moreover, the skew-symmetric part is not required to be bounded and therefore it could be singular. Sufficient conditions on the coefficients are provided to ensure the global weighted $W^{1,p}$-regularity estimates for weak solutions of the systems. As a direct application, we show that our $W^{1,p}$-regularity results give some criteria in critical spaces for the global regularity of weak Leray-Hopf solutions of the Navier-Stokes system of equation
This work is concerned with special regularity properties of solutions to the $k$-generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation. In cite{IsazaLinaresPonce} it was established that if the initial datun $u_0in H^l((b,infty))$ for some $linmathbb Z^+$ and $bin mathbb R$, then the corresponding solution $u(cdot,t)$ belongs to $H^l((beta,infty))$ for any $beta in mathbb R$ and any $tin (0,T)$. Our goal here is to extend this result to the case where $,lin mathbb R^+$.
