Teknologie licentiat Åke Staffan Lundberg disputerer for graden ph.d. i anvendt matematikk og beregningsorienterte ingeniøranvendelser og vil offentlig forsvare avhandlingen "Studies of some Operators of Harmonic Analysis in certain Function Spaces with Applications to PDEs".

Kort sammendrag av avhandlingen:
The study in this PhD thesis aims at development of certain mathematical methods used in applications, in particular, in the study of regularity properties of solutions in various mathematical models described by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). To this end, we study various operators of harmonic analysis in certain function spaces, since solutions to many PDEs may be expressed in terms of such operators. This PhD thesis consists of four papers (papers A--D) and an Introduction. In Paper A we introduce a version of weighted anisotropic mixed norm Morrey spaces and anisotropic Hardy operators. We derive conditions for boundedness of these operators in such spaces. We also reveal the role of these operators in the solving of some degenerate hyperbolic PDEs of some class. In Paper B we prove the boundedness of potential operators in weighted generalised Morrey space in terms of Matuszewska-Orlicz indices of weights and apply this result to the Helmholtz equation in R^3 with a free term in such a space. We also give a short overview of some typical situations when potential type operators arise when solving PDEs. In Paper C we study the boundedness of some multi-dimensional Hardy type operators in Hölder spaces and derive some new results of interest also in the theory of inequalities. In Paper D we prove some differentiation formulas for weighted singular integrals, which we suppose to apply in our future studies concerning the solution of some integral equations of the first kind. These new results are put into a more general frame in an Introduction, where also crucial parts of previous research by the candidate (e.g. published in two Licentiate theses) are briefly described. Note, in particular, that this PhD thesis may be regarded as a more theoretically based continuation of the Licentiate thesis in Wood Technology. This important link is carefully described in the Introduction.
