We consider general boundary value problems for homogeneous elliptic partial differential operators with constant coefficients. Under natural conditions on the operators, these problems give rise to isomorphisms between the appropriate spaces with homogeneous norms. We also consider operators which are not properly elliptic and boundary systems which do not satisfy the complementing condition and determine when they give rise to left or right invertible operators. A priori inequalities and regularity results for the corresponding boundary value problems in Sobolev spaces are then readily obtained.
