An operator satisfies the Global Comparison Property if anytime a function touches another from above at some point, then the operator preserves the ordering at the point of contact. This is characteristic of degenerate elliptic operators,…

The first part of the article is, in fact, the classical Routh method delivered in the language of contemporary theory of Lagrangian systems. But the Routh method deals only with concrete equations and, therefore, can be applied only in the…
