Synopsis

Given a decreasing sequence of domains Ωn converging in measure to some domain Ω0, a sequence of subspaces V of a Hilbert space V is constructed in such a way that the convergence of the solutions of u −Δu = f on Ωn with Neumann Boundary Condition is given in terms of the convergence of the orthogonal projections Pn on Vn. Under dissipative assumptions, we can obtain continuation results for equations like u −Δu = f(x,u ∇u).
