Iterative Methods for Globally Lipschitz Nonlinear Laplace Equations
Jie Xu · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2019
We introduce an iterative method to prove the existence and uniqueness of the complex-valued nonlinear elliptic PDE of the form $ -Δu + F(u) = f $ with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions on a precompact domain $ Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$, where $ F : \mathbb{C} \rightarrow \mathbb{C} $ is Lipschitz. The same method gives a solution to $ - Δ_{g} u + F(u) = f $ for these boundary conditions on a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold $ (M, g) $ with $ \mathcal{C}^{1} $ boundary, where $ - Δ_{g} $ is the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We also apply parametrix methods to discuss an integral version of these PDEs.
