For each question you may use the results of previous questions even if you have
not answered them.
Exercise 1. State the Lax-Milgram lemma (or theorem).
Exercise 2. For any R > 0 let BR be the ball of radius R in R3 , centered at 0:

Fix a function c ∈ L∞ (R3 ) and a function f ∈ L2 (R3 ).
For each R > 0 we consider the following problem, which we call P(R):
Find uR : BR → R such that:

uR (x) = 0 for x ∈ ∂BR .
