dirichlet problem for laplace's equation

605 Views Asked by At

How can we show that a Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation in a finite region has a unique solution.

Usually we can consider u2 - u1, a difference in values.

If $u_1$ and $u_2$ solve Laplace's equation on the same domain with the same boundary conditions, then $u_2 - u_1$ solves Laplace's equation with $0$ boundary conditions. The maximum principle now implies that $u_2 - u_1 = 0$.
