THE HARNACK INEQUALITY FOR SECOND-ORDER ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS WITH DIVERGENCE-FREE DRIFTS∗ MIHAELA IGNATOVA†, IGOR KUKAVICA‡, AND LENYA RYZHIK§ Abstract. We consider an elliptic equation with a divergence-free drift b. We prove that an inequality of Harnack type holds under the assumption b∈Ln/2+δ where δ>0. As an application

Second order elliptic partial di erential equations are fundamentally modeled by Laplace’s equation u= 0.

It follows easily that the equation (1)' F(ajl) = G(Du, D2u) = +(x) > 0 is elliptic at every admissible function u. Furthermore, relying on the results of Section 3 of [3] we see that F is a concave function of the matrix (ail) and hence G is a concave function in its dependence on the symmetric matrix D2u.

These lecture notes are intented as an introduction to linear second order elliptic partial differential equations. It can be considered as a continuation of a chapter on elliptic equations of the lecture notes [17] on partial differen-tial equations. In [17] we focused our attention mainly on explicit solutions

Equation ( 1) is one of the nonlinear second-order equations involving the singular term and with critical Sobolev growth. Such problem arises from various fields of geometry and physics. There are many results for second-order elliptic equations, but most of them are focused on bounded domains of or on compact Riemannian manifold , see [ 1 ...
