This monograph presents a comprehensive treatment of second order divergence form elliptic operators with bounded measurable t-independent coefficients in spaces of fractional smoothness, in Besov and weighted Sobolev classes. We establish mapping properties for the double and single layer potentials, as well as the Newton potential, on Besov spaces. We prove extrapolation-type solvability results: that is, we show that solvability of the Dirichlet or Neumann boundary value problem at any given L^p space automatically assures their solvability in an extended range of Besov spaces. We also establish well-posedness for non-homogeneous boundary value problems. In particular, we prove well-posedness of the non-homogeneous Dirichlet problem with data in Besov spaces for operators with real, not necessarily symmetric coefficients.
