Harnack inequalities in infinite dimensions
We consider the Harnack inequality for harmonic functions with respect to
three types of infinite dimensional operators. For the infinite dimensional
Laplacian, we show no Harnack inequality is possible. We also show that the
Harnack inequality fails for a large class of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes,
although functions that are harmonic with respect to these processes do satisfy
an a priori modulus of continuity. Many of these processes also have a coupling
property. The third type of operator considered is the infinite dimensional
analog of operators in H\"{o}rmander's form. In this case a Harnack inequality
does hold.Comment: Minor revision of the previous versio
Entire solutions of quasilinear elliptic systems on Carnot Groups
We prove general a priori estimates of solutions of a class of quasilinear
elliptic system on Carnot groups. As a consequence, we obtain several non
existence theorems. The results are new even in the Euclidean setting.Comment: 21 pages submitte
