Let $\alpha(x)$ be a measurable function taking values in $ [\alpha_1,\alpha_2]$ for $0<\A_1\le \A_2<2$, and $\kappa(x,z)$ be a positive measurable function that is symmetric in $z$ and bounded between two positive constants. Under a…

The solutions of a kind of second-order homogeneous partial differential equation are called (real kernel) alpha-harmonic functions. In this paper, the boundary correspondence and boundary behavior of alpha-harmonic functions are studied,…
We establish a Harnack inequality for finite connected graphs with non-negative Ricci curvature. As a consequence, we derive an eigenvalue lower bound, extending previous results for Ricci flat graphs.
When revisiting the Faber-Krahn inequality for the principal $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue of a bounded open set in $\mathbb R^n$ with smooth boundary, we simply rename it as the $p$-Faber-Krahn inequality and interestingly find that this…
The eigenvalue problem for the p-Laplace operator with Robin boundary condition is considered in this paper. A Faber-Krahn type inequality is proved. More precisely, it is shown that amongst all the domains of fixed volume, the ball has the…
Suppose that $d\ge 1$ and $\alpha\in (0, 2)$. In this paper, by using probabilistic methods, we establish sharp two-sided pointwise estimates for the Dirichlet heat kernels of $\{\Delta+ a^\alpha \Delta^{\alpha/2}; \ a\in (0, 1]\}$ on…
We demonstrate lower bounds for the eigenvalues of compact Bakry-Emery manifolds with and without boundary. The lower bounds for the first eigenvalue rely on a generalised maximum principle which allows gradient estimates in the Riemannian…
