Abstract
We consider the Laplace equation with a right-hand side concentrated on a curved fracture of class Cm+2 for some nonnegative integer m (i.e., a sort of Dirac mass). We show that the solution belongs to a weighted Sobolev space of order m, the weight being the distance to this fracture. Our proof relies on a priori estimates in a dihedron or a cone with singularities for elliptic operators with variable coefficients. In both cases, such an estimate is obtained using a dyadic covering of the domain.
