Analysis of Some Localized Boundary–Domain Integral Equations for Transmission Problems with Variable Coefficients

  • Chapter

Abstract

Some segregated systems of direct localized boundary-domain integral equations (LBDIEs) associated with several transmission problems for scalar PDEs with variable coefficients are formulated and analyzed for a bounded domain composed of two subdomains with a coefficient jump over the interface. The main results established in the paper are the LBDIE equivalence to the original transmission problems and the invertibility of the corresponding localized boundary-domain integral operators in corresponding Sobolev spaces function spaces.
