Sommario/riassunto

Mixed, transmission, or crack problems belong to the analysis of  boundary value problems on manifolds with singularities. The  Zaremba problem with a jump between Dirichlet   and Neumann conditions along an interface on the boundary is a classical example. The central   theme of this book is to study mixed problems in standard Sobolev   spaces as well as in weighted edge spaces where the interfaces are interpreted as edges.   Parametrices and regularity of solutions are obtained within a systematic   calculus of boundary value problems on manifolds with conical or edge   singularities. This calculus allows singularities on the interface, and homotopies between   mixed and crack problems. Additional edge conditions are computed in terms   of relative index results. In a detailed final chapter, the intuitive ideas of the approach are   illustrated, and there is a discussion of future challenges. A special feature of   the text is the inclusion of many worked out examples which help the   reader to appreciate the scope of the theory and to treat new cases of practical interest.      This book is addressed to mathematicians and physicists interested  in models with singularities, associated boundary value problems,   and their solvability strategies based on pseudo-differential operators.   The material is also useful for  students in higher semesters and young researchers, as well as for  experienced specialists working in analysis



on manifolds with  geometric singularities, the applications of index theory and  spectral theory, operator algebras with symbolic structures,  quantisation, and asymptotic analysis.
