We consider the question of giving an upper bound for the first nontrivial eigenvalue of the Wentzell-Laplace operator of a domain $\Omega$, involving only geometrical informations. We provide such an upper bound, by generalizing Brock's…
We give full boundary extensions to two fundamental estimates in the theory of elliptic PDE, the weak Harnack inequality and the quantitative strong maximum principle, for uniformly elliptic equations in non-divergence form.
We explore the optimality of the constants making valid the recently established Little Grothendieck inequality for JB$^*$-triples and JB$^*$-algebras. In our main result we prove that for each bounded linear operator $T$ from a…
We precisely evaluate Bellman type functions for the dyadic maximal opeator on $R^n$ and of maximal operators on martingales related to local Lorentz type estimates. Using a type of symmetrization principle, introduced for the dyadic…
We study existence, regularity, and qualitative properties of solutions to linear problems involving higher-order fractional Laplacians $(-\Delta)^s$ for any $s>1$. Using the nonlocal properties of these operators, we provide an explicit…
Take an open domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ whose boundary may be composed of pieces of different dimensions. For instance, $\Omega$ can be a ball on $\mathbb R^3$, minus one of its diameters $D$, or $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^3$ could…
We prove a weak maximum principle for subsolutions of a degenerate, linear, second order elliptic operator with lower order terms, building on the existence results recently proved by the authors and \c{C}etin, Dal and Zeren.
In this article, we will consider second order uniformly elliptic operators of divergence form defined on R^n with measurable coefficients. Mainly, we will give estimates on the dimension of space of solutions that grow at most polynomially…
A quaternionic matrix-valued regular function is a map $F: \Omega \rightarrow M_n(\mathbb{H})$ whose entries are (left) regular functions of a quaternion variable, where $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{H}$. Our aim is to bring out some…
We prove that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded in the weighted generalized Orlicz space if the weight satisfies the classical Muckenhoupt condition $A_p$ and $t \to \frac{\varphi(x,t)}{t^p}$ is almost increasing in addition…
We generalize the proof of Karamata's Theorem by the method of approximation by polynomials to the operator case. As a consequence, we offer a simple proof of \emph{uniform dual ergodicity} for a very large class of dynamical systems with…
Let $u$ and $v$ be harmonic in $ \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ functions with the same zero set $Z$. We show that the ratio $f$ of such functions is always well-defined and is real analytic. Moreover it satisfies the maximum and minimum…
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…
Abstract approaches to maximum and anti-maximum principles for differential operators typically rely on the condition that all vectors in the domain of the operator are dominated by the leading eigenfunction of the operator. We study the…
We consider the Neumann problem in $C^2$ bounded domains for fully nonlinear second order operators which are elliptic, homogenous with lower order terms. Inspired by \cite{bnv}, we define the concept of principal eigenvalue and we…
Given a complex, elliptic coefficient function we investigate for which values of $p$ the corresponding second-order divergence form operator, complemented with Dirichlet, Neumann or mixed boundary conditions, generates a strongly…
Motivated by previous work leveraging factorizations of second- and fourth-order differential operators, a general integral inequality involving higher order derivatives is proven by elementary means. It is then shown how this framework…
In this paper we give the complete characterization of the boundedness of the generalized fractional maximal operator $$ M_{\phi,\Lambda^{\alpha}(b)}f(x) : = \sup_{Q \ni x} \frac{\|f \chi_Q\|_{\Lambda^{\alpha}(b)}}{\phi (|Q|)} \qquad (x \in…
