On the coercivity of elliptic systems in two dimensional spaces
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 April 2009
Abstract
We establish necessary conditions for quadratic forms corresponding to strongly elliptic systems in divergence form to have various coercivity properties in a smooth domain in ℝ2. We prove that if the quadratic form has some coercivity property, then certain types of BMO seminorms of the coefficients of the system cannot be very large. We use the connection between Jacobians and Hardy spaces and the special structures of elliptic quadratic forms defined on 2 X 2 matrices.
