We study the ratio of harmonic functions $u,v$, which have the same zero set $Z$ in the unit ball $B\subset \mathbb{R}^n$. The ratio $f=u/v$ can be extended to a real analytic nowhere vanishing function in $B$. We prove the Harnack…

The existence and nonexistence of $\lambda$-harmonic functions in unbounded domains of $\mathbb{H}^n$ are investigated. We prove that if the $(n-1)/2$ Hausdorff measure of the asymptotic boundary of a domain $\Omega$ is zero, then there is…

We prove a generalized version of the $3G$ Principle for Green's functions on bounded inner uniform domains in a wide class of Dirichlet spaces. In particular, our results apply to higher-dimensional fractals such as Sierpinski carpets in…

Following a recent study by Das and Pernice [Nucl. Phys. B561, (1999) 357], we have carefully analyzed the half-harmonic oscillator. In contrast to their observations, our analysis reveals that the spectrum does not allow for a zero energy…

We provide the classical Boundary Harnack principle in Lipschitz domains for solutions to two different linear uniformly elliptic equations with the same principal part.

We provide a higher order boundary Harnack inequality for harmonic functions in slit domains. As a corollary we obtain the $C^\infty$ regularity of the free boundary in the Signorini problem near non-degenerate points.

For a family of domains in the Sierpinski gasket, we study harmonic functions of finite energy, characterizing them in terms of their boundary values, and study their normal derivatives on the boundary. We characterize those domains for…

We study properties of positive functions satisfying (E) --$\Delta$u + u p -- M |$\nabla$u| q = 0 is a domain $\Omega$ or in R N + when p > 1 and 1 < q < min{p, 2}. We concentrate our research on the solutions of (E) vanishing on the…

Let $\Om$ be a domain in the complex plane $\C$ whose complement $E=\OC\setminus \Om$, where $\OC=\C\cup\{\infty\}$ is a subset of the real line (i.e. $\Om$ is a Denjoy domain). If each point of $E$ is regular for the Dirichlet problem in…

We first consider a question raised by Alexander Eremenko and show that if $\Omega $ is an arbitrary connected open cone in ${\mathbb R}^d$, then any two positive harmonic functions in $\Omega $ that vanish on $\partial \Omega $ must be…

Let $u$ be a positive harmonic function in the unit ball $B_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and let $\mu$ be the boundary measure of $u$. Consider a point $x\in \partial B_1$ and let $n(x)$ denote the unit normal vector at $x$. Let $\alpha$ be a…

Let $n\ge 2$ and $s\in (n-2,n)$. Assume that $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a one-sided bounded non-tangentially accessible domain with $s$-Ahlfors regular boundary and $\sigma$ is the surface measure on the boundary of $\Omega$, denoted…

We study properties of $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic and $\mathcal{A}$-superharmonic functions involving an operator having generalized Orlicz-growth embracing besides Orlicz case also natural ranges of variable exponent and double-phase cases. In…

We study the boundary behavior of nonnegative p-harmonic functions which vanish on a portion of the boundary of a domain in the Heisenberg group H^n. Our main results are: 1) An estimate from above which shows that, under suitable geometric…

This paper is dedicated to a free boundary system arising in the study of a class of shape optimization problems. The problem involves three variables: two functions $u$ and $v$, and a domain $\Omega$; with $u$ and $v$ being both positive…

We study the boundary behaviour of solutions to second order parabolic linear equations in moving domains. Our main result is a higher order boundary Harnack inequality in $C^1$ and $C^{k,\alpha}$ domains, providing that the quotient of two…

It is well known that for higher order elliptic equations the positivity preserving property (PPP) may fail. In striking contrast to what happens under Dirichlet boundary conditions, we prove that the PPP holds for the biharmonic operator…

We investigate the Boundary Harnack Principle in H\"older domains of exponent $\alpha>0$ by the analytical method developed in our previous work "A short proof of Boundary Harnack Principle".

We assume that $\Omega_1, \Omega_2 \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 1$ are two disjoint domains whose complements satisfy the capacity density condition and the intersection of their boundaries $F$ has positive harmonic measure. Then we…
