Abstract

We prove the square integrability of the second derivatives of the solution of an elliptic second order equation in a general convex domain, bounded in the n-dimensional Euclidean space, under monotonic boundary conditions. Our boundary conditions are general enough to include strongly non-linear conditions as for instance Signorini's. There is no restriction concerning the singularities of the boundary of the convex domain in which the equation is considered; this domain is allowed for instance to be a two-dimensional polygon or a three-dimensional polyhedron.
