Résumé
Abstract

On considère la solution fondamentale $G_{a}$ de l'opérateur $- Δ_{a} = - \frac{1}{a (x)} div (a (x) \nabla \cdot)$ , sur un domaine borné régulier $Ω \subset R^{n}$ ( $n ⩾ 2$ ) avec les conditions de Dirichlet au bord, ici a est une fonction régulière et strictement positive sur $\bar{Ω}$ . Dans cette Note, on donne une description précise de la fonction $G_{a} (x, y)$ . On définit notamment $H_{a} (x, y)$ , la partie continue de $G_{a}$ et on montre que la fonction de Robin correspondante $R_{a} (x) = H_{a} (x, x)$ est dans $C^{\infty} (Ω)$ , sachant que $H_{a} \notin C^{1} (Ω \times Ω)$ en général.

We consider the fundamental solution $G_{a}$ of the operator $- Δ_{a} = - \frac{1}{a (x)} div (a (x) \nabla \cdot)$ on a bounded smooth domain $Ω \subset R^{n}$ ( $n ⩾ 2$ ), associated to the Dirichlet boundary condition, where a is a positive smooth function on $\bar{Ω}$ . In this short Note, we give a precise description of the function $G_{a} (x, y)$ . In particular, we define in a unique way its continuous part $H_{a} (x, y)$ and we prove that the corresponding Robin's function $R_{a} (x) = H_{a} (x, x)$ belongs to $C^{\infty} (Ω)$ , although $H_{a} \notin C^{1} (Ω \times Ω)$ in general.
