Combined interior and boundary elliptic regularity for the Dirichlet Laplacian on a smooth bounded domain states that, for every integer ,when and has zero boundary trace. More generally one first has an additional term, which uniqueness and the Poincare inequality remove here.
For the shifted equation, write . The weak estimate gives . Applying the displayed estimate first with an right side gives . Repeating,until . The lower-order term is controlled at each stage, yieldingThis is boundary elliptic regularity for the shifted Dirichlet Laplacian.
