Popis: © 2021 The Authors. The aim of this paper is to develop a layer potential theory in L2-based weighted Sobolev spaces on Lipschitz bounded and exterior domains of Rn , n ≥ 3, for the anisotropic Stokes system with L∞ viscosity tensor coefficient satisfying an ellip- ticity condition for symmetric matrices with zero matrix trace. To do this, we explore equivalent mixed variational formulations and prove the well-posedness of some transmission problems for the anisotropic Stokes system in Lipschitz domains of Rn, with the given data in L2-based weighted Sobolev spaces. These results are used to define the volume (Newtonian) and layer potentials and to obtain their properties. Then, we analyze the well-posedness of the exterior Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the anisotropic Stokes system with L∞ symmetrically elliptic tensor coefficient by representing their solutions in terms of the obtained volume and layer potentials.
