We study a commonly-used second-kind boundary-integral equation for solving the Helmholtz exterior Neumann problem at high frequency, where, writing $Gamma$ for the boundary of the obstacle, the relevant integral operators map $L^2(Gamma)$ to itself. We prove new frequency-explicit bounds on the norms of both the integral operator and its inverse. The bounds on the norm are valid for piecewise-smooth $Gamma$ and are sharp, and the bounds on the norm of the inverse are valid for smooth $Gamma$ and are observed to be sharp at least when $Gamma$ is curved. Together, these results give bounds on the condition number of the operator on $L^2(Gamma)$; this is the first time $L^2(Gamma)$ condition-number bounds have been proved for this operator for obstacles other than balls.

We consider three problems for the Helmholtz equation in interior and exterior domains in R^d (d=2,3): the exterior Dirichlet-to-Neumann and Neumann-to-Dirichlet problems for outgoing solutions, and the interior impedance problem. We derive sharp estimates for solutions to these problems that, in combination, give bounds on the inverses of the combined-field boundary integral operators for exterior Helmholtz problems.
In this paper we develop an existence theory for the nonlinear initial-boundary value problem with singular diffusion $partial_t u = text{div}(k(x) abla G(u))$, $u|_{t=0}=u_0$ with Neumann boundary conditions $k(x) abla G(u)cdot u = 0$. Here $xin Bsubset mathbb{R}^d$, a bounded open set with locally Lipchitz boundary, and with $ u$ as the unit outer normal. The function $G$ is Lipschitz continuous and nondecreasing, while $k(x)$ is diagonal matrix. We show that any two weak entropy solutions $u$ and $v$ satisfy $Vert{u(t)-v(t)}Vert_{L^1(B)}le Vert{u|_{t=0}-v|_{t=0}}Vert_{L^1(B)}e^{Ct}$, for almost every $tge 0$, and a constant $C=C(k,G,B)$. If we restrict to the case when the entries $k_i$ of $k$ depend only on the corresponding component, $k_i=k_i(x_i)$, we show that there exists an entropy solution, thus establishing in this case that the problem is well-posed in the sense of Hadamard.
Over the last ten years, results from [Melenk-Sauter, 2010], [Melenk-Sauter, 2011], [Esterhazy-Melenk, 2012], and [Melenk-Parsania-Sauter, 2013] decomposing high-frequency Helmholtz solutions into low- and high-frequency components have had a large impact in the numerical analysis of the Helmholtz equation. These results have been proved for the constant-coefficient Helmholtz equation in either the exterior of a Dirichlet obstacle or an interior domain with an impedance boundary condition. Using the Helffer-Sjostrand functional calculus, this paper proves analogous decompositions for scattering problems fitting into the black-box scattering framework of Sjostrand-Zworski, thus covering Helmholtz problems with variable coefficients, impenetrable obstacles, and penetrable obstacles all at once. In particular, these results allow us to prove new frequency-explicit convergence results for (i) the $hp$-finite-element method applied to the variable coefficient Helmholtz equation in the exterior of a Dirichlet obstacle, when the obstacle and coefficients are analytic, and (ii) the $h$-finite-element method applied to the Helmholtz penetrable-obstacle transmission problem.
We are interested in the classical ill-posed Cauchy problem for the Laplace equation. One method to approximate the solution associated with compatible data consists in considering a family of regularized well-posed problems depending on a small parameter $varepsilon>0$. In this context, in order to prove convergence of finite elements methods, it is necessary to get regularity results of the solutions to these regularized problems which hold uniformly in $varepsilon$. In the present work, we obtain these results in smooth domains and in 2D polygonal geometries. In presence of corners, due the particular structure of the regularized problems, classical techniques `a la Grisvard do not work and instead, we apply the Kondratiev approach. We describe the procedure in detail to keep track of the dependence in $varepsilon$ in all the estimates. The main originality of this study lies in the fact that the limit problem is ill-posed in any framework.
We consider a free boundary problem on three-dimensional cones depending on a parameter c and study when the free boundary is allowed to pass through the vertex of the cone. Combining analysis and computer-assisted proof, we show that when c is less than 0.43, the free boundary may pass through the vertex of the cone.
