Abstract
In his book (Functional Analysis, Wiley, New York, 2002), P. Lax constructs an explicit representation of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann semigroup, when the matrix of electrical conductivity is the identity matrix and the domain of the problem in question is the unit ball in ℝn. We investigate some representations of Dirichlet-to-Neumann semigroup for a bounded domain. We show that such a nice explicit representation as in Lax book, is not possible for any domain except Euclidean balls. It is interesting that the treatment in dimension 2 is completely different than other dimensions. Finally, we present a natural and probably the simplest numerical scheme to calculate this semigroup in full generality by using Chernoff’s theorem.
