Abstract

We explore the higher integrability of Green's functions associated with the second-order elliptic equation aijDiju+biDiu=fa^{ij}D_{ij}u + b^i D_iu = f in a bounded domain ΩRd\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d, and establish an enhanced version of Aleksandrov's maximum principle. In particular, we consider the drift term b=(b1,,bd)b=(b^1, \ldots, b^d) in LdL_d and the source term fLpf \in L_p for some p<dp < d. This provides an alternative and analytic proof of a result by N. V. Krylov (\textit{Ann. Probab.}, 2021) concerning LdL_d drifts. The key step involves deriving a Gehring-type inequality for Green's functions by using the Fabes-Stroock approach (\textit{Duke Math. J.}, 1984).
