Maximum principle for subsolutions of degenerate elliptic operators

Abstract

The maximum principle for classical and viscosity subsolutions of a general degenerate elliptic linear second order operator with second and first order terms alone on bounded open subsets is proved under various assumptions on the coefficients. A general sufficient condition is given when the coefficients are continuous. A counter example is also given to show that the maximum principle is not valid even for classical subsolutions of degenerate elliptic operators in general. (author). 3 refs.
