Abstract

Given p > 2 and a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability of the Neumann problem for Laplace's equation Δ u = 0 in Ω with boundary data in Lp (∂ Ω). As a result, we show that the Lp Neumann problem on convex domains in Rd is solvable for 1 < p < ∞ if d = 2, for 1 < p < 4 if d = 3, and for 1 < p < 3 + ε if d ≥ 4.
