In this article we study perturbations of local, nonlinear Dirichlet forms on arbitrary topological measure spaces. We show that the semigroup of a local Dirichlet form \(\mathcal{E}\) dominates the semigroup generated by another functional…

This paper is a generalization of the author's previous work [14]. We extend the argument [14] for any uniformly elliptic operator in divergence form $\mathcal{L}u=-div(A(x)\nabla u)$, more precisely, we study a fractional type degenerate…

We characterize all semigroups sandwiched between the semigroup of a Dirichlet form and the semigroup of its active main part. In case the Dirichlet form is regular, we give a more explicit description of the quadratic forms of the…

Assume that $(X,d,\mu)$ is a metric space endowed with a non-negative Borel measure $\mu$ satisfying the doubling condition and the additional condition that $\mu(B(x,r))\gtrsim r^n$ for any $x\in X, \,r>0$ and some $n\geq1$. Let $L$ be a…

In this article, we show that if $A$ is a maximal monotone operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with $0$ in the range $\textrm{Rg}(A)$ of $A$, then for every $0<s<1$, the Dirichlet problem associated with the Bessel-type equation $$…

In this paper we investigate the validity and the consequences of the maximum principle for degenerate elliptic operators whose higher order term is the sum of "k" eigenvalues of the Hessian. In particular we shed some light on some very…

We prove some Hardy type inequalities related to quasilinear second order degenerate elliptic differential operators L_p(u):=-\nabla_L^*(\abs{\nabla_L u}^{p-2}\nabla_L u). If \phi is a positive weight such that -L_p\phi>= 0, then the Hardy…

We consider divergence form elliptic operators $L=-\dv A(x)\nabla$, defined in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}=\{(x,t)\in\mathbb{R}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}\}, n \geq 2$, where the $L^{\infty}$ coefficient matrix $A$ is $(n+1)\times(n+1)$, uniformly elliptic,…

We consider second-order uniformly elliptic operators subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. Such operators are considered on a bounded domain $\Omega$ and on the domain $\phi(\Omega)$ resulting from $\Omega$ by means of a bi-Lipschitz…

We associate with each simple Lie algebra a system of second-order differential equations invariant under a non-compact real form of the corresponding Lie group. In the limit of a contraction to a Schr\"odinger algebra, these equations…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H=- \d^2/\d r^2+V$ on $L^2([0,\infty))$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition. The potential $V$ may be local or non-local, with polynomial decay at infinity. The point zero in the spectrum of $H$ is…

In this paper, we study eigenvalue of linear fourth order elliptic operators in divergence form with Dirichlet boundary condition on a bounded domain in a compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary (possibly empty) and find a general…

We present in a unified setting the foundations for a theory of non-bilinear Dirichlet functionals on Hilbert spaces. We prove known and new equivalences between non-linear semigroups, non-linear resolvents, non-linear generators, and their…

Let $H$ be the symmetric second-order differential operator on $L_2(\Ri)$ with domain $C_c^\infty(\Ri)$ and action $H\varphi=-(c \varphi')'$ where $ c\in W^{1,2}_{\rm loc}(\Ri)$ is a real function which is strictly positive on…

We analyze the local elliptic regularity of weak solutions to the Dirichlet problem associated with the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ on an arbitrary bounded open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$. For $1<p<2$, we obtain regularity in…

The main result of the paper is on the continuity of weak solutions of infinitely degenerate quasilinear second order equations. Namely, we show that every weak solution to a certain class of degenerate quasilinear equations is continuous.…

In this article we consider a class of non-degenerate elliptic operators obtained by superpositioning the Laplacian and a general nonlocal operator. We study the existence-uniqueness results for Dirichlet boundary value problems, maximum…

Given a general symmetric elliptic operator $$ L\_{a} := \sum\_{k,,j=1}^d \p\_k (a\_{kj} \p\_j) + \sum\_{k=1}^d a\_k \p\_k - \p\_k(\overline{a\_k} .) + a\_0$$we define the associated Dirichlet-to-Neumann (D-t-N) operator with partial data,…
