In the simplest case of the Laplacian in the upper half-space, the Dirichlet boundary value problem with data in BMO (i.e., having bounded mean oscillation) is solved

In other words, if $K_t$ is the heat kernel then $u_*(x) = \sup_{t > 0} (K_t \ast |f|)(x)$ for some $f \in W^{1,2}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ then $\|\nabla u_*\|_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)}
