Uniqueness results for elliptic problems with singular data

Boundary Value Problems volume 2006, Article number: 98923 (2006) Cite this article

Abstract

We obtain some uniqueness results for the Dirichlet problem for second-order elliptic equations in an unbounded open set without the cone property, and with data depending on appropriate weight functions. The leading coefficients of the elliptic operator are VMO functions. The hypotheses on the other coefficients involve the weight function.
