Harnack inequality for harmonic functions relative to a nonlinear p -homogeneous Riemannian Dirichlet form

We consider a Riemannian ( p-homogeneous) Dirichlet functional Φ ( u ) = ∫ X μ ( u ) ( d x ) ( p > 1 ) defined on D, where D is a dense subspace of L p ( X , m ) and X is a locally compact Hausdorff topological space endowed with the distance d connected with Φ ( u ) (see Section 2 for the defini...

Description
Summary:We consider a Riemannian ( p-homogeneous) Dirichlet functional Φ ( u ) = ∫ X μ ( u ) ( d x ) ( p > 1 ) defined on D, where D is a dense subspace of L p ( X , m ) and X is a locally compact Hausdorff topological space endowed with the distance d connected with Φ ( u ) (see Section 2 for the definitions). We denote by a ( u , v ) = ∫ X μ ˜ ( u , v ) ( d x ) the Dirichlet form related to Φ ( u ) . We prove a Harnack type inequality for positive harmonic function relative to the form a ( u , v ) ; as a consequence we obtain also the Hölder continuity of harmonic function relative to the form a ( u , v ) .
