Analysis of differential operators associated with boundary value problems

Abstract

We consider boundary value problems in a two-component domain of the Euclidean space R n obtained by eliminating from R n the boundary G. Traces on both sides of G are defined without limit passages. In a Hilbert trace space, we introduce orthogonal projections, analogs of the Calderon projections, which are used for constructing operators whose continuous invertibility implies the solvability of the corresponding boundary value problems. For the resolvents we obtain representations similar to the Krein formula. For a symmetric differential operator we show that the constructed resolvents of boundary value problems correspond to closed (not necessarily self-adjoint) extensions of this operator in the sense of von Neumann.
