Scaling invariant Harnack inequalities in a general setting
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a setting, where only “exit measures” are given, as they are associated with an arbitrary right continuous strong Markov process on a separable metric space, we provide simple criteria for the validity of Harnack inequalities for positive harmonic functions. These inequalities are scaling invariant with respect to a metric on the state space which, having an associated Green function, may be adapted to the special situation. In many cases, this also implies continuity of harmonic functions and Hölder continuity of bounded harmonic functions. The results apply to large classes of Lévy (and similar) processes.

Harnack inequalities for Hunt processes with Green function
Let (X,W) be a balayage space, 1 ∈ W, or – equivalently – let W be the set of excessive functions of a Hunt process on a locally compact space X with countable base such that W separates points, every function in W is the supremum of its continuous minorants and there exist strictly positive continuous u, v ∈ W such that u/v → 0 at infinity. We suppose that there is a Green function G > 0 for X...
متن کاملIntrinsic Hölder continuity of harmonic functions
In a setting, where only “exit measures” are given, as they are associated with a right continuous strong Markov process on a separable metric space, we provide simple criteria for scaling invariant Hölder continuity of bounded harmonic functions with respect to a distance function which, in applications, may be adapted to the special situation. In particular, already a very weak scaling proper...
متن کاملStability of Parabolic Harnack Inequalities
Let (G,E) be a graph with weights {axy} for which a parabolic Harnack inequality holds with space-time scaling exponent β ≥ 2. Suppose {axy} is another set of weights that are comparable to {axy}. We prove that this parabolic Harnack inequality also holds for (G,E) with the weights {axy}. We also give stable necessary and sufficient conditions for this parabolic Harnack inequality to hold.
متن کاملHarnack inequalities and Bôcher-type theorems for conformally invariant fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations
We give a generalization of a theorem of Bôcher for the Laplace equation to a class of conformally invariant fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations. We also prove a Harnack inequality for locally Lipschitz viscosity solutions and a classification of continuous radially symmetric viscosity solutions.
متن کاملGlobal Positivity Estimates and Harnack Inequalities for the Fast Diffusion Equation
We investigate local and global properties of positive solutions to the fast diffusion equation ut = ∆u m in the range (d− 2)+/d < m < 1, corresponding to general nonnegative initial data. For the Cauchy problem posed in the whole Euclidean space R we prove sharp Local Positivity Estimates (Weak Harnack Inequalities) and Elliptic Harnack inequalities; we use them to derive sharp Global Positivi...
