We prove some Hardy type inequalities related to quasilinear second order degenerate elliptic differential operators L_p(u):=-\nabla_L^*(\abs{\nabla_L u}^{p-2}\nabla_L u). If \phi is a positive weight such that -L_p\phi>= 0, then the Hardy…

We consider the Hodge Laplacian $\Delta$ on the Heisenberg group $H_n$, endowed with a left-invariant and U(n)-invariant Riemannian metric. For $0\le k\le 2n+1$, let $\Delta_k$ denote the Hodge Laplacian restricted to $k$-forms. Our first…

We establish two global subellipticity properties of positive symmetric second-order partial differential operators on $L_2(\Ri^d)$. First, if $m \in \Ni$ then we consider operators $H_0$ with coefficients in $W^{m+1,\infty}(\Ri^d)$ and…
