Given a differential operator defined in terms of left-invariant vector fields on a Lie group, we prove that the local condition defining maximal hypoellipticity is equivalent to a global estimate if the operator is left invariant. As a…
We prove a strong maximum principle for Schr\"odinger operators defined on a class of fractal sets and their blowups without boundary. Our primary interest is in weaker regularity conditions than have previously appeared in the literature;…
We generalize the Maximum Principle for free end point optimal control problems involving sweeping systems derived in [9] to cover the case where the end point is constrained to take values in a certain set. As in [9], an ingenious smooth…
In this paper, we prove a maximum principle for the $p$-Laplacian with a sign-changing weight. As an application of this maximum principle, we study the existence of one-sign solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic problems.
In this paper we develop new extremal principles in variational analysis that deal with finite and infinite systems of convex and nonconvex sets. The results obtained, unified under the name of tangential extremal principles, combine primal…
The maximum principle for SPDEs is established in multidimensional $C^{1}$ domains. An application is given to proving the H\"older continuity up to the boundary of solutions of one-dimensional SPDEs.
We apply the well-known and also the newly introduced notions from bounded linear dynamics to unbounded linear operators. We present a hypermixing criterion similar to that given for bounded linear operators and then we show that the…
The main scope of this article is to define the concept of principal eigenvalue for fully non linear second order operators in bounded domains that are elliptic and homogenous. In particular we prove maximum and comparison principle, Holder…
We study higher-order elliptic operators on one-dimensional ramified structures (networks). We introduce a general variational framework for fourth-order operators that allows us to study features of both hyperbolic and parabolic equations…
We study different maximum principles for non-local non-linear operators with non-standard growth that arise naturally in the context of fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces and whose most notable representative is the fractional $g-$Laplacian:…
We discuss a mathematical framework for analysis of optimal control problems on infinite-dimensional manifolds. Such problems arise in study of optimization for partial differential equations with some symmetry. It is shown that some…
In this paper we investigate the validity and the consequences of the maximum principle for degenerate elliptic operators whose higher order term is the sum of "k" eigenvalues of the Hessian. In particular we shed some light on some very…
We provide an extension of the Hartman-Knobloch theorem for periodic solutions of vector differential systems to a general class of $\phi$-Laplacian differential operators. Our main tool is a variant of the Man\'{a}sevich-Mawhin…

In this paper we introduce new notions of local extremality for finite and infinite systems of closed sets and establish the corresponding extremal principles for them called here rated extremal principles. These developments are in the…
We obtain a unique continuation result at infinity for fully nonlinear elliptic integro-differential operators of order 2s which satisfy the maximum and minimum principles in bounded subdomains, under the decay assumption $o(|x|^{-(N+2s)})$…

We present some applications of ideas from partial differential equations and differential geometry to the study of difference equations on infinite graphs. All operators that we consider are examples of "elliptic operators" as defined by…
We introduce the notion of \textit{Perron capacity} of a set of slopes $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}$. Precisely, we prove that if the Perron capacity of $\Omega$ is finite then the directional maximal operator associated $M_\Omega$ is not…
We study a control problem where the state equation is a nonlinear partial differential equation of the calculus of variation in a bounded domain, perturbed by noise. We allow the control to act on the boundary and set stochastic boundary…
