Abstract

In the previous chapter, we showed that nonnegative solutions of elliptic equations in “asymptotically symmetric” domains are “asymptotically symmetric” as well (see Theorem 3.3 ). However, in order to prove Theorem 3.3 , we imposed a restriction on the dimension (less or equal 3) of the underlying domain, which was crucial for our proof. The goal of this chapter is to extend Theorem 3.3 for higher dimensions.
