A sup+inf inequality for Liouville type equations with weights

Abstract

We generalize a result by H. Brezis, Y. Y. Li and I. Shafrir [6] and obtain an Harnack type inequality for solutions of −Δu = |x|2α Ve u in Ω for Ω ⊂ ℝ2 open, α ∈ (−1, 0) and V any Lipschitz continuous function satisfying 0 < a ≤ V ≤ b < ∞ and ‖∇V‖∞ ≤ A.
