Area integral estimates for higher order elliptic equations and systems
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 47 (1997) no. 5, pp. 1425-1461.

Let L be an elliptic system of higher order homogeneous partial differential operators. We establish in this article the equivalence in L p norm between the maximal function and the square function of solutions to L in Lipschitz domains. Several applications of this result are discussed.

Soit L un système elliptique d’ordre m2 d’opérateurs différentiels homogènes. On établit l’équivalence entre la norme L p de la fonction maximale et la fonctionnelle quadratique des solutions de L dans les domaines lipschitziens. On donne quelques conséquences de ce résultat.
