Abstract
We consider the Laplacian with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions on bounded Lipschitz domains �, both with the following two domains of definition:D1(�) = {u ∈ W1,p(�) : �u ∈ Lp(�), Bu = 0}, orD2(�) = {u ∈ W2,p(�) : Bu = 0}, where B is the boundary operator.We prove that, under certain restrictions on the range of p, these operators generate positive analytic contraction semigroups on Lp(�) which implies maximal regularity for the corresponding Cauchy problems. In particular, if � is bounded and convex and 1 < p ≤ 2, the Laplacian with domain D2(�) has the maximal regularity property, as in the case of smooth domains. In the last part,we construct an example that proves that, in general, the Dirichlet–Laplacian with domain D1(�) is not even a closed operator.
