Maximal $L_p$-regularity of non-local boundary value problems

Abstract

We investigate the $\mathcal R$-boundedness of operator families belonging to the Boutet de Monvel calculus. In particular, we show that weakly and strongly parameter-dependent Green operators of nonpositive order are $\mathcal R$-bounded. Such operators appear as resolvents of non-local (pseudodifferential) boundary value problems. As a consequence, we obtain maximal $L_p$-regularity for such boundary value problems. An example is given by the reduced Stokes equation in waveguides.
