Abstract
We study the existence and uniqueness of solutions to an elliptic problem with a nonlinear dynamic boundary condition, relating the conormal derivative of the unknown to the time derivative of its jump across an intemal interface. We firstly prove the well-posedness of a suitable linear version of this problem, by means of a classical result in abstract parabolic theory; then, we study the nonlinear case using a fixed point technique. Our mathematical scheme is of interest in the modelling of electrical conduction in biological tissues. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
