Matrix Weights and Regularity for Degenerate Elliptic Equations

We prove local boundedness, Harnack's inequality and local regularity for weak solutions of quasilinear degenerate elliptic equations in divergence form with Rough coefficients. Degeneracy is encoded by a non-negative, symmetric, measurable matrix valued function Q(x) and two suitable non-negative weight functions. We setup an axiomatic approach in terms of suitable geometric conditions and local Sobolev-Poincaré inequalities. Data integrability is close to L1 and is exploited in terms of a suitable Stummel-Kato class that in some cases is necessary for local regularity.

The local sharp maximal function and BMO on locally homogeneous spaces

We prove a local version of Fefferman-Stein inequality for the local sharp maximal function, and a local version of John-Nirenberg inequality for locally BMO functions, in the framework of locally homogeneous spaces, in the sense of Bramanti-Zhu [Manuscripta Math. 138 (2012), no. 3-4, 477-528].

BMO estimates for nonvariational operators with discontinuous coefficients structured on Hormander's vector fields on Carnot groups

We consider a class of nonvariational linear operators formed by homogeneous left invariant Hormander's vector fields with respect to a structure of Carnot group. The bounded coefficients of the operators belong to "vanishing logarithmic mean oscillation" class with respect to the distance induced by the vector fields (in particular they can be discontinuous). We prove local estimates in "local BMO" spaces intersected with the Lebesgue spaces. Even in the uniformly elliptic case our estimates improve the known results.

Harnack inequality and regularity for degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations

We prove Harnack inequality and local regularity results for weak solutions of a quasilinear degenerate equation in divergence form under natural growth conditions. The degeneracy is given by a suitable power of a strong $A_\infty$ weight. Regularity results are achieved under minimal assumptions on the coefficients and, as an application, we prove $C^{1,α}$ local estimates for solutions of a degenerate equation in non divergence form.
