Characterizing the Strong Maximum Principle
In this paper we characterize the degenerate elliptic equations F(Du) = 0 whose subsolutions (F(Du) ≥ 0) satisfy the strong maximum principle. We introduce an easily computed function f on (0,∞) which is determined by F, and we show that the strong maximum principle holds depending on whether ∫ 0+ dy f(y) is infinite or finite. This complements our previous work characterizing when the (ordinar...
متن کاملThe Strong Maximum Principle on Infinite Networks
We study the strong maximum principle for the heat equation associated with the Dirichlet form on an infinite network. We prove that the strong maximum principle is equivalent to the underlying graph being connected after deletion of the nodes with infinite degree. Using this result, we prove that the multiplicity of the eigenvalue 0 of a generalization of the Laplace matrix equals the number o...

متن کاملOn the Support of Diffusion Processes with Applications to the Strong Maximum Principle
A strong maximal principle for the operator (a/st) + L, is a statement of the form: "for each open 1 c [0, oo) x Rd and each (to, x0) e 9 there is a set Y(to, x0) 91 with the property that (af/lt) + LJf _ 0 on !(to, x0) and f(to, x0) = supg(toXO)f(t, x) imply f _ f(to, xO) on 9(to, x0)." Of course, in order for a strong maximum principle to be very interesting it must describe the set 9(to, x0)...
متن کاملA Note on the Splitting Principle
We offer a new perspective on the splitting principle. We give an easy proof that applies to all classical types of vector bundles and in fact to G-bundles for any compact connected Lie group G. The perspective gives precise calculational information and directly ties the splitting principle to the specification of characteristic classes in terms of classifying spaces. In the algebraic topology...
