This paper deals with linear stochastic partial differential equations with variable coefficients driven by L{e}vy white noise. We first derive an existence theorem for integral transforms of L{e}vy white noise and prove the existence of generalized and mild solutions of second order elliptic partial differential equations. Furthermore, we discuss the generalized electric Schrodinger operator for different potential functions $V$.
We consider nonnegative solutions $u:Omegalongrightarrow mathbb{R}$ of second order hypoelliptic equations begin{equation*} mathscr{L} u(x) =sum_{i,j=1}^n partial_{x_i} left(a_{ij}(x)partial_{x_j} u(x) right) + sum_{i=1}^n b_i(x) partial_{x_i} u(x) =0, end{equation*} where $Omega$ is a bounded open subset of $mathbb{R}^{n}$ and $x$ denotes the point of $Omega$. For any fixed $x_0 in Omega$, we prove a Harnack inequality of this type $$sup_K u le C_K u(x_0)qquad forall u mbox{ s.t. } mathscr{L} u=0, ugeq 0,$$ where $K$ is any compact subset of the interior of the $mathscr{L}$-propagation set of $x_0$ and the constant $C_K$ does not depend on $u$.
In this paper we characterize global regularity in the sense of Shubin of twisted partial differential operators of second order in dimension $2$. These operators form a class containing the twisted Laplacian, and in bi-unique correspondence with second order ordinary differential operators with polynomial coefficients and symbol of degree $2$. This correspondence is established by a transformation of Wigner type. In this way the global regularity of twisted partial differential operators turns out to be equivalent to global regularity and injectivity of the corresponding ordinary differential operators, which can be completely characterized in terms of the asymptotic behavior of the Weyl symbol. In conclusion we observe that we have obtained a new class of globally regular partial differential operators which is disjoint from the class of hypo-elliptic operators in the sense of Shubin.
We show how the tangent bundle decomposition generated by a system of ordinary differential equations may be generalized to the case of a system of second order PDEs `of connection type. Whereas for ODEs the decomposition is intrinsic, for PDEs it is necessary to specify a closed 1-form on the manifold of independent variables, together with a transverse local vector field. The resulting decomposition provides several natural curvature operators. The harmonic map equation is examined, and in this case both the 1-form and the vector field arise naturally.
We prove a Meyers type regularity estimate for approximate solutions of second order elliptic equations obtained by Galerkin methods. The proofs rely on interpolation results for Sobolev spaces on graphs. Estimates for second order elliptic operators on rather general graphs are also obtained.
