We show that to each symmetric elliptic operator of the form A=−∑∂ k a k l∂ l+ c on a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω⊂ R d one can associate a self-adjoint Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on L 2 (∂ Ω), which may be multi-valued if 0 is in the Dirichlet spectrum of A. To overcome the lack of coerciveness in this case, we employ a new version of the Lax–Milgram lemma based on an indirect ellipticity property that we call hidden compactness. We then establish uniform resolvent convergence of a sequence of Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators whenever the underlying coefficients converge uniformly and the second-order limit operator in L 2 (Ω) has the unique continuation property. We also consider semigroup convergence.
