Abstract

We study the regularity of the solution of the regularized electric Maxwell problem in a polygonal domain with data in $L^{p} {(Ω)}^{2}$ . Using a duality method, we prove a decomposition of the solution into a regular part in the non-Hilbertian Sobolev space $W^{2, p} {(Ω)}^{2}$ and an explicit singular one.
