Abstract

We consider some transmission problems for the Laplace operator in two‐dimensional domains. Our goal is to give minimal regularity of the solutions, better than H^1^, with or without conditions on the (positive) material constants. Under a monotonicity or quasi‐monotonicity condition on the constants (or on the inverses according to the boundary conditions), we study the behaviour of the solution near vertex and near interior nodes and show in each case that the given regularity is sharp. Without condition we prove that the regularity near a corner is of the form H^1+ρ^, where ρ is a given bound depending on the material constants. Numerical examples are presented which confirm the sharpness of our lower bounds. Copyright Β© 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We characterize the primitives of the minimal extension of the Lebesgue integral which also integrates the derivatives of differentiable functions (called the Cintegral). Then we prove that each BV function is a multiplier for the C-integral and that the product of a derivative and a BV function is
