This paper concerns Hopf's boundary point lemma, in certain $C^{1,Dini}$-type domains, for a class of singular/degenerate PDE-s, including $p$-Laplacian. Using geometric properties of levels sets for harmonic functions in convex rings, we…

We prove sharp boundary H{\"o}lder regularity for solutions to equations involving stable integro-differential operators in bounded open sets satisfying the exterior $C^{1,\text{dini}}$-property. This result is new even for the fractional…

In this paper, we prove the boundary Lipschitz regularity and the Hopf Lemma by a unified method on Reifenberg domains for fully nonlinear elliptic equations. Precisely, if the domain $\Omega$ satisfies the exterior Reifenberg…

We discuss the problem how "bad" may be lower-order coefficients in elliptic and parabolic second order equations to ensure the Hopf--Oleinik Lemma for solutions to hold true. We also touch the gradient estimates for solutions at the…

In this paper we consider Hopf's Lemma and the Strong Maximum Principle for supersolutions to a class of non elliptic equations. In particular we prove a sufficient condition for the validity of Hopf's Lemma and of the Strong Maximum…

We consider a class of quasi-linear anisotropic elliptic equations, possibly degenerate or singular, which are of interest in several applications such as computer vision and continuum mechanics. We prove a Hopf Lemma as well as local and…

In [1], Theorem 3, the authors proved, in one dimension, a generalization of the Hopf Lemma, and the question arose if it could be extended to higher dimensions. In this paper we present two conjectures as possible extensions, and give a…

We study the critical points of the solution of second elliptic equations in divergence and diagonal form with a bounded and positive definite coefficient, under the assumption that the statement of the Hopf lemma holds (sign assumptions on…

We revisit the classical theory of linear second-order uniformly elliptic equations in divergence form whose solutions have H\"older continuous gradients, and prove versions of the generalized maximum principle, the $C^{1,\alpha}$-estimate,…

In this paper we study minimal realizations in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)$ of the second order elliptic operator \begin{equation*} { A_{b,c}} := (1+|x|^\alpha)\Delta + b|x|^{\alpha-2}x\cdot\nabla - c |x|^{\alpha-2} - |x|^{\beta} , \quad x \in…

We prove an $L^p$-version of the limiting absoprtion principle for a class of periodic elliptic differential operators of second order. The result is applied to the construction of nontrivial solutions of nonlinear Helmholtz equations with…

In this short article, we state a Hopf type lemma for fractional equations and the outline of its proof. We believe that it will become a powerful tool in applying the method of moving planes on fractional equations to obtain qualitative…

We consider elliptic equations with non-Lipschitz nonlinearity $$ -\Delta u = \lambda |u|^{\beta-1}u-|u|^{\alpha-1}u$$ in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, with Dirichlet boundary conditions; here…

In this paper, we consider different versions of the classical Hopf's boundary lemma in the setting of the fractional $p-$Laplacian for $p \geq 2$. We start by providing for a new proof to a Hopf's lemma based on comparison principles.…

In this paper we prove some results on the boundary behavior of solutions to fractional elliptic problems. Firstly, we establish a Hopf Lemma for solutions to some integro-differential equations. The main novelty of our result is that we do…

In this paper we investigate the validity of Hopf's Lemma for a (possibly sign-changing) function $u \in H^s_0(\Omega)$ satisfying \[ (-\Delta)^s u(x) \geq c(x)u(x) \quad \text{in }\Omega,\] where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is an open,…

We consider elliptic operators with measurable coefficients and Robin boundary conditions on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and show that the first eigenfunction $v$ satisfies $v(x) \ge \delta > 0$ for all $x \in…

We show that a second-order elliptic differential operator $P$, on any manifold $M$, has closed range in $C^\infty(M)$. If $M$ has no compact components, then $P$ is surjective on $C^\infty(M)$. Applications to Helmholtz decomposition are…

We prove a Hopf bifurcation theorem in Hilbert spaces for abstract semilinear equations, which improves a classical result by Crandall and Rabinowitz in the case where basic spaces are Hilbert spaces. Actually, our theorem does not need any…

In this paper, we first establish Hopf's lemmas for parabolic fractional equations and parabolic fractional $p$-equations. Then we derive an asymptotic Hopf's lemma for antisymmetric solutions to parabolic fractional equations. We believe…
