Strong Comparison Principle for $p-$harmonic functions in Carnot-Caratheodory spaces

Luca Capogna, Xiaodan Zhou

Published 2017-07-19Version 1

We extend Bony's propagation of support argument \cite{Bony} to $C^1$ solutions of the non-homogeneous sub-elliptic $p-$Laplacian associated to a system of smooth vector fields satisfying H\"ormander's finite rank condition. As a consequence we prove a strong maximum principle and strong comparison principle that generalize results of Tolksdorf \cite{Tolksdorf}.
