Specifically, by transforming the general drifts into weak divergence-free drifts, we establish the existence and uniqueness of a bounded weak solution, showing that the zero-order term does not influence the quantity of the unique weak solution. Additionally, by imposing the $ VMO$ condition and mild differentiability on the diffusion coefficients and assuming an $L^s$-zero-order terms with $s \\in (1, \\infty)$, we demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution for the corresponding non-divergence type equations. An important feature of this paper is that, due to the weak divergence-free property of the drifts in the transformed equations, the constants appearing in our estimates can be explicitly calculated, which is expected to offer significant applications in error analysis.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-08-22T11:12:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35J25", "35R05", "35B65", "35B35" ], "keywords": [ "linear elliptic equations", "zero-order term", "general drifts", "dirichlet boundary value problem", "weak divergence-free drifts" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
