Harnack inequality for anisotropic fully nonlinear equations with nonstandard growth
Abstract
We establish Harnack inequalities for viscosity solutions of a class of degenerate fully nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations exhibiting non-standard growth conditions. A primary example of such operators is the degenerate anisotropic -Laplacian. Our approach relies on the sliding paraboloid method, adapted with suitably chosen anisotropic functions to derive the basic measure estimates. A central contribution of this work is the development of a doubling property, achieved through the explicit construction of a novel barrier function. By combining these tools with the intrinsic geometry techniques introduced in [DGV08, VV25], we prove the intrinsic Harnack inequality for this class of operators under appropriate conditions on the exponents .
