Singular integral operators and elliptic boundary-value problems. I

The book consists of three Parts I–III and Part I is presented here. In this book, we develop a new approach mainly based on the author's papers. Many results are published here for the first time.
Chapter 1 is introductory. The necessary background from functional analysis is given there for completeness. In this book, we mostly use weighted Hölder spaces, and they are considered in Ch. 2. Chapter 3 plays the main role: in weighted Hölder spaces we consider there estimates of integral operators with homogeneous difference kernels, which cover potential-type integrals and singular integrals as well as Cauchy-type integrals and double layer potentials. In Ch. 4, analogous estimates are established in weighted Lebesgue spaces.
Integrals with homogeneous difference kernels will play an important role in Part III of the monograph, which will be devoted to elliptic boundary-value problems. They naturally arise in integral representations of solutions of first-order elliptic systems in terms of fundamental matrices or their parametrixes. Investigation of boundary-value problems for second-order and higher-order elliptic equations or systems is reduced to first-order elliptic systems.
