In this paper we prove that a complete Riemannian manifold is $L^p$-positivity preserving for any $p\in(1,\infty)$. This means that any $L^p$ function which solves $(-\Delta + 1)u\ge 0$ in the sense of distributions is necessarily…

We say that a Riemannian manifold satisfies the $L^p$-positivity preserving property if $(-\Delta + 1)u\ge 0$ in a distributional sense implies $u \ge 0$ for all $ u \in L^p$.While geodesic completeness of the manifold at hand ensures the…

On a complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, we consider $L^{p}_{loc}$ distributional solutions of the the differential inequality $-\Delta u + \lambda u \geq 0$ with $\lambda >0$ a locally bounded function that may decay to $0$ at infinity.…

A quantitative regularity theory is developed for weak solutions to the parabolic system $$ \partial_t u-\mathrm{div}\,{\boldsymbol{\mathsf A}}(x,t,Du)=0 \quad\text{in }E_T\subset \mathbb{R}^N\times\mathbb{R}, $$ which features the…

If $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for improved $L^p(M)$-norms of eigenfunctions for all $2<p\ne p_c=\tfrac{2(n+1)}{n-1}$, the critical exponent. Since improved…

In this paper we provide a way of taking $L^p$, $p > \frac{m}{2}$ bounds on a $m-$ dimensional Riemannian metric and transforming that into H\"{o}lder bounds for the corresponding distance function. One can think of this new estimate as a…

We prove $L^p\to L^{p'}$ bounds for the resolvent of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ in the endpoint case $p=2(n+1)/(n+3)$. It has the same behavior with respect to the spectral parameter $z$…

We consider $(M,g)$ a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n \geq 2$ without boundary, $1 < p$ a real parameter and $r = \frac{p(n + p)}{n}$. This paper concerns the validity of the optimal Moser inequality \[ \left(\int_M…
