We discuss the local properties of weak solutions to the equation $-\Delta u + b\cdot\nabla u=0$. The corresponding theory is well-known in the case $b\in L_n$, where $n$ is the dimension of the space. Our main interest is focused on the…

We prove that if the elliptic problem $-\Delta u+b(x)|\nabla u|=c(x)u$ with $c\ge0$ has a positive supersolution in a domain $\Omega$ of $ \IR^{N\ge 3}$, then $c,b$ must satisfy the inequality \[\sqrt{ \int_\Omega c\phi^2}\le \sqrt{…

We consider the elliptic equation $-\Delta u = u^q|\nabla u|^p$ in $\mathbb R^n$ for any $p\ge 2$ and $q>0$. We prove a Liouville-type theorem, which asserts that any positive bounded solution is constant. The proof technique is based on…
