What's wrong with the Courant nodal domain theorem?

The Courant nodal domain theorem (for Neumann boundary conditions) says that the $n$-th eigenfunction has at most $n$ nodal domains (connected components where the eigenfunction has the same sign. How …

Solution to inhomogenous PDE

This kernel is called the Bessel potential. It is smooth away from $0$, and in your case, this kernel is locally integrable.

Elliptic theory on compact manifolds

For the specific question of getting rid of the low-order term $\|u\|_p$, what you really need is the compact embedding of $W^{2,p}$ in $L^p$ (Rellich–Kondrachov theorem). Indeed, suppose there is no …

Moser estimates?

Integrating by parts, using a cutoff function if necessary, we have $$ \int_{B(r)} |\nabla u|^2\ll \int_{B(r)} a_{ij}\partial_iu\partial_ju=\int_{B(R)} uLu+O(u|\nabla u|)\ll \int_{B(R)} |u\nabla u|. …
