Introduction

This book is devoted to the Laplace equation as one of the most important equations in mathematical physics. Results of the theory of boundary value problems for the Poisson equation are useful in many fields of physics, and also in other mathematical theories—for example, in the theory of boundary value problems for elliptic equations and in hydrodynamics. So, we aimed to write this text to be as accessible as possible to experts in other fields and to research students. In the preliminary chapter, we gather all fundamental definitions and propositions from various fields of mathematics that we use in this book. Boundary value problems for the Laplace equation are studied independently in potential theory, in the theory of partial differential equations, and in harmonic analysis by distinct methods. Here, we attempt to gather the most important results of these theories concerning boundary value problems for the Laplace equation or, more generally, for the Poisson equation. Contain
