Elliptic problems on the space of weighted with the distance to the boundary integrable functions revisited

Jesus Idelfonso Diaz, Jean-Michel Rakotoson

Abstract:
We revisit the regularity of very weak solution to second-order elliptic equations Lu=f in $\Omega$ with u=0 on $\partial\Omega$ for $f\in L^1(\Omega,\delta)$, $\delta(x) $ the distance to the boundary $\partial\Omega$. While doing this, we extend our previous results (and many others in the literature) by allowing the presence of distributions f+g which are more general than Radon measures (more precisely with g in the dual of suitable Lorentz-Sobolev spaces) and by making weaker assumptions on the coefficients of L. One of the new tools is a Hardy type inequality developed recently by the second author. Applications to the study of the gradient of solutions of some singular semilinear equations are also given.
