The necessity of a Maximum Principle arises naturally when one is interested in the study of qualitative properties of solutions to partial differential equations. In general, to ensure the validity of these kind of principles one has to…
We establish two Phragm\'en--Lindel\"{o}f theorems for a fully nonlinear elliptic equation. We consider a dynamic boundary condition that includes both spatial variable and time derivative terms. As a spatial term, we consider a non-linear…
We characterize the validity of the Maximum Principle in bounded domains for fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators in terms of the sign of a suitably defined generalized principal eigenvalue. Here, maximum principle refers to the…
We first prove De Giorgi type level estimates for functions in $W^{1,t}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, with $t>N\geq 2$. This augmented integrability enables us to establish a new Harnack type inequality for functions which do not…
Maximum Principles on unbounded domains play a crucial r\^ole in several problems related to linear second-order PDEs of elliptic and parabolic type. In this paper we consider a class of sub-elliptic operators $\mathcal{L}$ in…
We consider a class of fully nonlinear nonlocal degenerate elliptic operators which are modeled on the fractional Laplacian and converge to the truncated Laplacians. We investigate the validity of (strong) maximum and minimum principles,…
We investigate the validity of the Phragm\`en-Lindel\"of principle for a class of elliptic equations with a potential, posed on infinite graphs. Consequently, we get uniqueness, in the class of solutions satisfying a suitable growth…
We investigate strong maximum (and minimum) principles for fully nonlinear second order equations on Riemannian manifolds that are non-totally degenerate and satisfy appropriate scaling conditions. Our results apply to a large class of…
Given any finite direction set $\Omega$ of cardinality $N$ in Euclidean space, we consider the maximal directional Hilbert transform $H_{\Omega}$ associated to this direction set. Our main result provides an essentially sharp uniform bound,…
We introduce a new method for proving the nonexistence of positive supersolutions of elliptic inequalities in unbounded domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplicity and robustness of our maximum principle-based argument provides for its…
In this paper we investigate maximum principles for functionals defined on solutions to special partial differential equations of elliptic type, extending results by Payne and Philippin. We apply such maximum principles to investigate one…
We study the validity of the comparison and maximum principles, and their relation with principal eigenvalues, for a class of degenerate nonlinear operators that are extremal among operators with one dimensional fractional diffusion.
In this paper, we establish various maximum principles and develop the method of moving planes and the sliding method (on general unbounded domains) for equations involving the uniformly elliptic nonlocal Bellman operator. As a consequence,…
This paper investigates the link between the Maximum Principle and the sign of the (generalized) principal eigenvalue for elliptic operators in unbounded domains. Our approach covers the cases of Dirichlet, Neumann, and (indefinite) Robin…
We prove weak and strong maximum principles, including a Hopf lemma, for smooth subsolutions to equations defined by linear, second-order, partial differential operators whose principal symbols vanish along a portion of the domain boundary.…
The uncertainty principle lemma for the Laplacian on Euclidean spaces shows the borderline-behavior of a potential for the following question : whether the Schr\"odinger operator has a finite or infinite number of the discrete pectrum. In…
We consider eigenvalue problems for general elliptic operators of arbitrary order subject to homogeneous boundary conditions on open subsets of the euclidean N-dimensional space. We prove stability results for the dependence of the…
We prove versions of the Phragm\'en--Lindel\"of strong maximum principle for generalized analytic functions defined on unbounded domains. A version of Hadamard's three-lines theorem is also derived.
The spectral properties of a class of non-selfadjoint second order elliptic operators with indefinite weight functions on unbounded domains $\Omega$ are investigated. It is shown that under an abstract regularity assumption the nonreal…
We introduce the notion of \textit{Perron capacity} of a set of slopes $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}$. Precisely, we prove that if the Perron capacity of $\Omega$ is finite then the directional maximal operator associated $M_\Omega$ is not…
