Abstract

A necessary and sufficient condition is given on the boundary datum in order to the Dirichlet problem for an elliptic equation in a two-dimensional exterior Lipschitz domain has a unique solution with a finite Dirichlet integral which converges uniformly at infinity to an assigned constant value.
