If Ω ⊂ ℝn is a bounded domain, the existence of solutions [Formula: see text] of div u = f for f ∈ L2(Ω) with vanishing mean value, is a basic result in the analysis of the Stokes equations. In particular, it allows to show the existence of a solution [Formula: see text], where u is the velocity and p the pressure. It is known that the above-mentioned result holds when Ω is a Lipschitz domain and that it is not valid for arbitrary Hölder-α domains. In this paper we prove that if Ω is a planar simply connected Hölder-α domain, there exist solutions of div u = f in appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces, where the weights are powers of the distance to the boundary. Moreover, we show that the powers of the distance in the results obtained are optimal. For some particular domains with an external cusp, we apply our results to show the well-posedness of the Stokes equations in appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces obtaining as a consequence the existence of a solution [Formula: see text] for some r < 2 depending on the power of the cusp.

AbstractIn this paper we establish the well-posedness of the Muskat problem with surface tension and equal viscosities in the subcritical Sobolev spaces $$W^s_p(\mathbb {R})$$ W p s ( R ) , where $${p\in (1,2]}$$ p ∈ ( 1 , 2 ] and $${s\in (1+1/p,2)}$$ s ∈ ( 1 + 1 / p , 2 ) . This is achieved by showing that the mathematical model can be formulated as a quasilinear parabolic evolution problem in $$W^{\overline{s}-2}_p(\mathbb {R})$$ W p s ¯ - 2 ( R ) , where $${\overline{s}\in (1+1/p,s)}$$ s ¯ ∈ ( 1 + 1 / p , s ) . Moreover, we prove that the solutions become instantly smooth and we provide a criterion for the global existence of solutions.

We consider a boundary value problem in a bounded domain involving a degenerate operator of the form L ( u ) = − div ( a ( x ) ∇ u ) and a suitable nonlinearity f. The function a vanishes on smooth 1-codimensional submanifolds of Ω where it is not allowed to be C 2 . By using weighted Sobolev spaces we are still able to find existence of solutions which vanish, in the trace sense, on the set where a vanishes.

This paper is concerned with the fractional quasigeostrophic equation with modified dissipativity. We prove the local existence of solutions in Sobolev spaces for the general initial data and the global existence for the small initial data when1/2≤α<1.

The stationary Stokes equations of a viscous incompressible fluid are considered in domains Ω with m > 1 exits to infinity, which have in some coordinate system the following form: [Formula: see text] where gi are functions satisfying the global Lipschitz condition and [Formula: see text] as xn→ ∞. The solvability of the Stokes system with prescribed fluxes is investigated in weighted Sobolev spaces, which are generated by different weighted L q norms.
