We prove that the elliptic Harnack inequality (on a manifold, graph, or suitably regular metric measure space) is stable under bounded perturbations, as well as rough isometries.
We investigate symmetry-breaking phenomena in semilinear elliptic systems on the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$, focusing on the emergence of non-radial solution branches with prescribed spatial and internal symmetries. Extending previous…
We first study the convergence of solutions of a system of F-KPP equations related to irreducible multitype branching Brownian motions with Heaviside-type initial conditions to traveling wave solutions. Then we apply this convergence result…
In this paper, we consider a large class of subordinate Brownian motions $X$ via subordinators with Laplace exponents which are complete Bernstein functions satisfying some mild scaling conditions at zero and at infinity. We first discuss…
We prove a Harnack inequality for solutions to $L_A u = 0$ where the elliptic matrix $A$ is adapted to a convex function satisfying minimal geometric conditions. An application to Sobolev inequalities is included.
It is known that solutions to second order uniformly elliptic and parabolic equations, either in divergence or nondivergence (general) form, are H\"{o}lder continuous and satisfy the interior Harnack inequality. We show that even in the…
We prove a stability theorem for the elliptic Harnack inequality: if two weighted graphs are equivalent, then the elliptic Harnack inequality holds for harmonic functions with respect to one of the graphs if and only if it holds for…
We study the small deviation problem $\log\mathbb{P}(\sup_{t\in[0,1]}|X_t|\leq\varepsilon)$, as $\varepsilon\to0$, for general L\'{e}vy processes $X$. The techniques enable us to determine the asymptotic rate for general real-valued…
Consider the fractional Brownian Motion (fBM) $B^H=\{B^H(t): t \in [0,1] \}$ with Hurst index $H\in (0,1)$. We construct a probability space supporting both $B^H$ and a fully simulatable process $\hat B_{\epsilon}^H $ such that $$\sup_{t\in…
In this paper we study a class of elliptic boundary hemivariational inequalities which originates in the steady-state heat conduction problem with nonmonotone multivalued subdifferential boundary condition on a portion of the boundary…
This paper proves conjectures originating in the physics literature regarding the intersection exponents of Brownian motion in a half-plane. For instance, suppose that B and B' are two independent planar Brownian motions started from…
By using lower bound conditions of the L\'evy measure, derivative formulae and Harnack inequalities are derived for linear stochastic differential equations driven by L\'evy processes. As applications, explicit gradient estimates and heat…
We obtain a uniform boundary Harnack principle (BHP) on any open sets for a large class of non-local operators on metric measure spaces under a jump measure comparability and tail estimate condition, and an upper bound condition on the…
We consider a Brownian motion with linear drift that splits at fixed time points into a fixed number of branches, which may depend on the branching point. For this process, which we shall refer to as the Brownian decision tree, we…
Consider the Skorokhod equation in the closed first quadrant: \[ X_t=x_0+ B_t+\int_0^t{\bf v}(X_s)\, dL_s,\] where $B_t$ is standard 2-dimensional Brownian motion, $X_t$ takes values in the quadrant for all $t$, and $L_t$ is a process that…

We show a symmetric Markov diffusion semigroup satisfies a weighted contractivity condition if and only if a $L^2$-Hardy inequality holds, and we give a Bakry-\'Emery type criterion for the former. We then give some applications.
We show that elliptic Harnack inequality is stable under form-bounded perturbations for strongly local Dirichlet forms on complete locally compact separable metric spaces that satisfy metric doubling property (or equivalently, relative ball…
