Abstract:
We consider the problem , , , where is bounded below by a positive constant. The solution on the boundary is a known function and . This is an ill-posed problem in the sense that a small disturbance on the boundary specification can produce a big change in its solution, if it exists. In a previous work, we used a Wavelet Galerkin Method with the Meyer Multiresolution Analysis to generate a sequence of well-posed approximating problems to it. In the present work, by assuming that is Lipschitz, we are able to prove that the existence of a solution , for this problem, implies its uniqueness.
