Abstract

We obtain the inequalities of the form Ωu(x)2h(u(x))dxCΩ(Pu(x)TH(u(x)))2h(u(x))dx+Θ,\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u(x)|^2h(u(x))\,{\rm d} x\leq C\int_{\Omega} \left( \sqrt{ |P u(x)||{\cal T}_{H}(u(x))|}\right)^{2}h(u(x))\,{\rm d} x +\Theta, where ΩRn\Omega\subset \mathbf{R}^n is a bounded Lipschitz domain, uWloc2,1(Ω)u\in W^{2,1}_{\rm loc}(\Omega) is non-negative, PP is a uniformly elliptic operator in non-divergent form, TH(){\cal T}_{H}(\cdot ) is certain transformation of the monotone C1C^1 function H()H(\cdot), which is the primitive of the weight h()h(\cdot), and Θ\Theta is the boundary term which depends on boundary values of uu and u\nabla u, which hold under some additional assumptions. Our results are linked to some results from probability and potential theories, e.g.~to some variants of the Douglas formulae.
