By "non-homogeneous boundary value problem" we mean a problem of the following type: let f and gj' 0 ~ i ~ 'v, be given in function space s F and Gj , F being a space" on m" and the G/ s spaces" on am" ; we seek u in a function space u/t "on m" satisfying (1)

Qj may be identically zero on part of am, so that the number of boundary conditions may depend on the part of am considered 2. We take as "working hypothesis" that, for fEF and gjEGj , the problem (1), (2) admits a unique solution u E U/t, which depends continuously on the data 3 . But for alllinear probIems, there is a large number of choiees for the space s u/t and {F; Gj } (naturally linke d together). Generally speaking, our aim is to determine families of spaces 'ft and {F; Gj }, associated in a "natural" way with problem (1), (2) and convenient for applications, and also all possible choiees for u/t and {F; Gj } in these families. Let us make this explicit by means of two examples, chosen as the simplest possible ones, but which already demonstrate th" utility of non-homogeneous probIems. «1» The Q/s will be called "boundary ope
