Abstract
Throughout this book, \( {\Omega \subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}} \) means a general domain, that is any open nonempty connected subset of the n-dimensional Euclidean space \( {\mathbb{R}^{n}} \). In the linearized theory we admit that \( n \geq 2 \), the nonlinear theory is restricted to n = 2 and n = 3 ; in the preliminaries, see Chapters I and II, we sometimes admit the case n = 1.
