Dec 6, 2022 at 13:32 comment added Tian LAN @RomainGicquaud I don't think there exists such a strong elliptic regularity. Remember we only assume $a_{ij}$ are uniformly elliptic without smoothness or even continuity assumption
Dec 6, 2022 at 13:18 comment added Romain Gicquaud If you are in a situation where you can apply standard elliptic regularity, yes. You will have $v \in W^{2, q}$ for any $q = \frac{1}{p} - \frac{1}{n}$. So, by the Sobolev embedding theorem, you have $Dv \in L^r$ with $\frac{1}{r} = \frac{1}{p} - \frac{2}{n}$. If $p$ is close enough to $2$, you have $r > 2$ which is exactly what you want.
Dec 6, 2022 at 13:03 comment added Tian LAN @RomainGicquaud To make $v$ a test function, we need $\int |Du|\,|Dv| $ to be well-defined. Is it possible to show $v\in W^{1,p}$ for some $p>2$?
Dec 6, 2022 at 10:20 comment added Romain Gicquaud If you are capable of solving the problem $\partial_i (a_{ij} \partial_j v) = f$ with $v$ sufficiently regular, you can solve the equation $\partial_i (a_{ij} \partial_j v) = u$ and use this $v$ as a test function. This gives you $\int u^2 = 0$ so $u \equiv 0$. See arxiv.org/pdf/2210.09823.pdf proposition 2.12

Dec 5, 2022 at 23:34 comment added Tian LAN @GiorgioMetafune because the Laplacian is so special that if $\Delta u=0$ in the distributional sense, then it must be a harmonic function. So for a fixed $x\in B$, we can apply the Poisson integral formula in $B_r$ for $r<1$, and then let $r\rightarrow 1$. Use the trace of $u$ on $\partial B_r$ converges to the trace on $\partial B$ in $L^1$.
Dec 5, 2022 at 21:27 comment added Giorgio Metafune How you prove it for the Laplacian? Usually Poisson formula requires classical solutions.
Dec 5, 2022 at 18:13 comment added Tian LAN @DanielShapero Of course we can, but how to use that to prove $u=0$?
Dec 5, 2022 at 17:06 comment added Daniel Shapero Can you assume not and then approximate $u$ by functions in $W_0^{1, 2}$?
