Let M be a Cartan-Hadamard manifold of dimension n (n ≥ 2). Suppose that M satisfies for every x > M outside a compact set an inequality:where b, A are positive constants and A > 4. Then M admits a wealth of bounded harmonic functions, more precisely, the Dirichlet problem of the Laplacian of M at infinity can be solved for any continuous boundary data on Sn−1(∞).

Let D be a domain in Euclidean space of d dimensions and K a compact subset of D. The well known Harnack inequality assures the existence of a positive constant A depending only on D and K such that (l/A)u(x)<u(y)<Au(x) for all x and y in K and all positive harmonic functions u on D. In this we obtain a global integral version of this inequality under geometrical conditions on the domain. The result is the following: suppose D is a Lipschitz domain satisfying the uniform exterior sphere condition—stated in Section 2. If u is harmonic in D with continuous boundary data f thenwhere ds is the d — 1 dimensional Hausdorff measure on the boundary ժD. A large class of domains satisfy this condition. Examples are C2-domains, convex domains, etc.

Boundary value problems for the Beltrami equations are due to the famous Riemann dissertation (1851) in the simplest case of analytic functions and to the known works of Hilbert (1904, 1924) and Poincare (1910) for the corresponding Cauchy--Riemann system. Of course, the Dirichlet problem was well studied for uniformly elliptic systems, see, e.g., \cite{Boj} and \cite{Vekua}. Moreover, the corresponding results on the Dirichlet problem for degenerate Beltrami equations in the unit disk can be found in the monograph \cite{GRSY}. In our article \cite{KPR1}, see also \cite{KPR3} and \cite{KPR5}, it was shown that each generalized homeomorphic solution of a Beltrami equation is the so-called lower $Q-$homeomorphism with its dilatation quotient as $Q$ and developed on this basis the theory of the boundary behavior of such solutions. In the next papers \cite{KPR2} and \cite{KPR4}, the latter made possible us to solve the Dirichlet problem with continuous boundary data for a wide circle of degenerate Beltrami equations in finitely connected Jordan domains, see also [\citen{KPR5}--\citen{KPR7}]. Similar problems were also investigated in the case of bounded finitely connected domains in terms of prime ends by Caratheodory in the papers [\citen{KPR9}--\citen{KPR10}] and [\citen{P1}--\citen{P2}]. Finally, in the present paper, we prove a series of effective criteria for the existence of pseudo\-re\-gu\-lar and multi-valued solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the degenerate Beltrami equations in arbitrary bounded finitely connected domains in terms of prime ends by Caratheodory.

First, we study the Dirichlet problem for the Poisson equations \(\triangle u(z) = g(z)\) with \(g\in L^p\), \(p>1\), and continuous boundary data \(\varphi :\partial D\to\mathbb{R}\) in arbitrary Jordan domains \(D\) in \(\mathbb{C}\) and prove the existence of continuous solutions \(u\) of the problem in the class \(W^{2,p}_{\rm loc}\). Moreover, \(u\in W^{1,q}_{\rm loc}\) for some \(q>2\) and \(u\) is locally Hölder continuous. Furthermore, \(u\in C^{1,\alpha}_{\rm loc}\) with \(\alpha = (p-2)/p\) if \(p>2\). Then, on this basis and applying the Leray-Schauder approach, we obtain the similar results for the Dirichlet problem with continuous data in arbitrary Jordan domains to the quasilinear Poisson equations of the form \(\triangle u(z) = h(z)\cdot f(u(z))\) with the same assumptions on \(h\) as for \(g\) above and continuous functions \(f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\), either bounded or with nondecreasing \(|f\,|\) of \( |t\,|\) such that \(f(t)/t \to 0\) as \(t\to\infty\). We also give here applications to mathematical physics that are relevant to problems of diffusion with absorbtion, plasma and combustion. In addition, we consider the Dirichlet problem for the Poisson equations in the unit disk \(\mathbb{D}\subset\mathbb{C}\) with arbitrary boundary data \(\varphi :\partial\mathbb{D}\to\mathbb{R}\) that are measurable with respect to logarithmic capacity. Here we establish the existence of continuous nonclassical solutions \(u\) of the problem in terms of the angular limits in \(\mathbb D\) a.e. on \(\partial\mathbb D\) with respect to logarithmic capacity with the same local properties as above. Finally, we extend these results to almost smooth Jordan domains with qusihyperbolic boundary condition by Gehring-Martio.

For continuous boundary data, the modified Poisson integral is used to write solutions to the half space Dirichlet problem for the Schrödinger operator. Meanwhile, a solution of the Poisson integral for any continuous boundary function is also given explicitly by the Poisson integral with the generalized Poisson kernel depending on this boundary function.

AbstractIt is shown that the Dirichlet problem for the slab (a, b) × ℝd with entire boundary data has an entire solution. The proof is based on a generalized Schwarz reflection principle. Moreover, it is shown that for a given entire harmonic function g, the inhomogeneous difference equation h(t + 1, y) − h(t, y) = g(t, y) has an entire harmonic solution h.

In two dimensions, we present a new approach to the study of the semilinear equations of the form \(\mathrm{div}[ A(z) \nabla u] = f(u)\), the diffusion term of which is the divergence uniform elliptic operator with measurable matrix functions \(A(z)\), whereas its reaction term \(f(u)\) is a continuous non-linear function. Assuming that \(f(t)/t\to 0\) as \(t\to\infty\), we establish a theorem on existence of weak \(C(\overline D)\cap W^{1,2}_{\rm loc}(D)\) solutions of the Dirichlet problem with arbitrary continuous boundary data in any bounded domains \(D\) without degenerate boundary components. As consequences, we give applications to some concrete model semilinear equations of mathematical physics, arising from modeling processes in anisotropic and inhomogeneous media. With a view to the further development of the theory of boundary-value problems for the semilinear equations, we prove a theorem on the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for the Poisson equation in Jordan domains with arbitrary boundary data that are measurable with respect to the logarithmic capacity.
