Some applications of partial balayage (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Partial balayage is a rather recent tool in potential theory. One of its origins is the construction of quadrature domains for subharmonic functions by Makoto Sakai in the 1970's. It also gives a convenient way of describing weak solutions to a moving boundary problem for Hele-Shaw flow (Laplacian growth), and recently Stephen Gardiner and Tomas Sjödin have used partial balayage to make progress on an inverse problem in potential theory. I plan to discuss some of these, and related, matters.
