You can resize a physical volume of a volume group with the pvresize 
command, though this only resizes the contents and you will need to use 
something like fdisk or parted to resize the partition to match.

However this will free up space at the end of the physical volume 
partition, and to make the boot partition bigger you probably want to move 
the start which is rather more tricky.
