Regularity estimates for Green operators of Dirichlet and Neumann problems on weighted Hardy spaces

Abstract: In this paper we first study the generalized weighted Hardy spaces $H^p_{L,w}(X)$ for $0<p\le 1$ associated to nonnegative self-adjoint operators $L$ satisfying Gaussian upper bounds on the space of homogeneous type $X$ in both cases of finite and infinite measure. We show that the weighted Hardy spaces defined via maximal functions and atomic decompositions coincide. Then we prove weighted regularity estimates for the Green operators of the inhomogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann problems in suitable bounded or unbounded domains including bounded semiconvex domains, convex regions above a Lipschitz graph and upper half-spaces. Our estimates are in terms of weighted $L^p$ spaces for the range $1<p<\infty$ and in terms of the new weighted Hardy spaces for the range $0<p\le 1$. Our regularity estimates for the Green operators under the weak smoothness assumptions on the boundaries of the domains are new, especially the estimates on Hardy spaces for the full range $0<p\le 1$ and the case of unbounded domains.
