Abstract

Let \( \Upomega \) be a bounded domain in RN, and \( {\text{Lu}} = \sum\nolimits_{\left| \upalpha \right| \le \text{m}\;\left| \upbeta \right| \le \text{m}} {( - 1)^{\left| \upbeta \right|} \text{D}^{\upbeta } } (\text{a}_{\upalpha \upbeta } (\text{x})\text{D}^{\upalpha }\text{u}) \) be a uniformly strongly elliptic operator acting on functions defined in \( \Upomega \).

The material presented here corresponds roughly to the lectures given by Djairo Guedes de Figueiredo at Tulane, in a program sponsored by the Ford Foundation.
