We first prove De Giorgi type level estimates for functions in $W^{1,t}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, with $t>N\geq 2$. This augmented integrability enables us to establish a new Harnack type inequality for functions which do not…
For $m \geq 2$, let $(\mathbb{Z}_{m+1}^N, |\cdot|)$ denote the group equipped with the so-called $l^0$ metric, \[ |y| = \left| \big( y(1), \dots, y(N) \big) \right| := | \{1 \leq i \leq N : y(i) \neq 0 \} |,\] and define the…
We study Schr\"odinger operators on $L^2(E;m)$ of the form $-A+V$ with singular potentials $V$. We address the question posed by H. Brezis about the structure of the set $\{u=0\}$ for non-negative supersolutions to $-Au+Vu=0$. The class of…
We consider the higher order Schr\"odinger operator $H=(-\Delta)^m+V(x)$ in $n$ dimensions with real-valued potential $V$ when $n>2m$, $m\in \mathbb N$. We adapt our recent results for $m>1$ to show that the wave operators are bounded on…
In this paper, we are interested in the nonlinear Schr\"odinger problem $-\Delta u + Vu = \abs{u}^{p-2}u$ submitted to the Dirichlet boundary conditions. We consider $p>2$ and we are working with an open bounded domain $\Omega\subset\IR^N$…
In a seminal work, B. Simon provided a classification of nonnegative Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+V$ into subcritical and critical operators based on the long-term behaviour of the associated heat kernel. Later works by others developed…
This paper is devoted to the study of the existence of positive and bounded solutions for a Schr\"odinger type equation defined on the entire Euclidean space, involving a general integro-differential operator. We consider the case where the…
In this note we study the property of unique continuation for solutions of $|(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}u|\leq|Vu|$, where $V$ is in a function class of potentials including $\bigcup_{p>n/\alpha}L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $n-1\leq\alpha<n$. In…
We provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a positive solution to $-\Delta u+V(|x|) u=u^p$ in $B_1$, when p is large enough. Here $B_1$ is the unit ball of $R^n$, n greater or equal to 2, and we deal both with Neumann and…
In this article we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the strong maximum principle and compact support principle for non-negative solutions to the quasilinear elliptic inequalities $$\Delta_\infty u + G(|Du|) - f(u)\,\leq 0\quad…
We prove symmetry for the p-capacitary potential satisfying $$ \Delta_p u = 0 \, \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^N \setminus \overline{\Omega} , \; u=1 \, \mbox{ on } \Gamma, \; \lim_{|x|\rightarrow \infty} u(x)=0 , \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; 1<p<N, $$…
We prove the existence of positive solutions for the supercritical nonlinear fractional Schr\"odinger equation $(-\Delta)^s u+V(x)u-u^p=0$ in $\mathbb R^n$, with $u(x)\to 0$ as $|x|\to +\infty$, where $p>\frac{n+2s}{n-2s}$ for $s\in (0,1),…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator \[ P=h^2 \Delta_g + V \] on $\mathbb{R}^n$ equipped with a metric $g$ that is Euclidean outside a compact set. The real-valued potential $V$ is assumed to be compactly supported and smooth except at…
We study equations driven by Schr\"odinger operators consisting of a self-adjoint Dirichlet operator and a singular potential, which belongs to a class of positive Borel measures absolutely continuous with respect to a capacity generated by…
We study boundedness on $L^p(R^d)$ of vertical Littlewood-Paley-Stein functions for Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta + V$ with nonnegative potential $V$. These functions are proved to be bounded on $L^p$ for all $p \in (1, 2]$. The…
