How to modify a $H^1$ weak convergence sequence so that I have the $L^2$ equi-integrability of gradient?
Assume $u_n\to u$ weakly in $H^1(\Omega)$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^N$ is open bounded Lipschitz boundary.
My goal is to find a new sequence $\bar u_n$ and a new function $\bar u$ such that
$\...

Operator globally hypoelliptic
An operateor $T$ is globally hypoelliptic if :
$u\in S'(\Bbb R^n),Tu\in S(\Bbb R^n)$ imply $u\in S(\Bbb R^n)$.
My question why if $u\in L^2(\Bbb R^n): Tu =\lambda u$. Then $u\in S(\Bbb R^n)$.
where $\...

Iterated integrations by parts using the fractional Laplacian
Let $u \in C^\infty_c(\mathbb{\Omega})$ and $\varphi$ be an eigenfunction of the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ in $\Omega$ with eigenvalue $\lambda$. In what sense, if any, is it true that

Elliptic equation with Neumann boundary condition: RHS in $L^2$ implies solution in $L^\infty$?
Consider the homogeneous Neumann problem $$-\Delta u + ku = f$$ $$\partial_\nu u = 0$$
on a smooth, bounded domain $\Omega$.
If $f \in L^2(\Omega)$, do we obtain the regularity $u \in L^\infty(\...

Local "boundary comparison principle" for harmonic functions
Let $u$ be a positive solution of the elliptic equation $\mathcal Lu = 0$ on $B^+_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $u$ vanishes continuously on $\{x_n = 0\}$. To fix ideas, we may take $\mathcal L = ...

Harnack Inequality for uniformly elliptic PDE via constructing a singularity
I am trying to prove a Harnack inequality for a nonnegative subsolution $u \in H^1(B_2)$ to the PDE $\text{div}(A Du) \ge 0$, where $A = A(x)$ is uniformly elliptic. The proof outline I am following ...

A question on weak formulation of the p-laplacian operator
Can it be said that $$\int_{\Omega}\Delta_p u |\phi|^{p-2}\phi dx=\int_{\Omega}\Delta_p \phi |u|^{p-2}u dx\qquad\forall \phi\in C_0^2(\overline{\Omega})$$ is the generalized weak formulation of $$\...
