based on two joint works with my student Sebastian Stahlhut and with Mihalis Mourgoglou, available on arXiv. development of Dirac operators for BVP from earlier works with Andreas Axelsson, Alan McIntosh, Steve Hofmann. Nothing could be done without the methodology of the solution of the Kato conjecture. P . Auscher Representation

Strongly elliptic real equations • local regularity theory (Nash-Moser) • Maximum principle: the classical Dirichlet problem with data f ∈ C c ( R n ) can be uniquely solved: u ∈ C (Ω) is bounded with � u � ∞ ≤ � f � ∞ and can be represented by applying the Riesz representation theorem: � R n f d ω t , x u ( t , x ) = L Probability measure ω t , x is the L -harmonic measure for L at L pole ( t , x ) . • Possible ansatz by using layer potential methods from the fundamental solution. • Many results starting in the late ’70s for real symmetric equations: Dahlberg, Jerison, Kenig, Verchota, R. Fefferman, Pipher.... and recently for real non-symmetric equations: Hofmann, Kenig, Mayboroda, Pipher. P . Auscher Representation
