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…

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…

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…
