In mathematics, '''Harnack's inequality''' is an [[inequality]] relating the values of a positive harmonic function at two points, introduced by {{harvs|txt|authorlink=Carl Gustav Axel Harnack|first=A.|last=Harnack|year=1887}}. {{harvs|txt|first=J. |last=Serrin|year=1955}} and {{harvs|txt|last=Moser|first=J.|authorlink=Jurgen Moser |year1=1961|year4=1964}} generalized Harnack's inequality to solutions of elliptic or parabolic [[partial differential equation]]s. [[Grigori Perelman|Perelman]]'s solution of the [[Poincare conjecture]] uses a version of the Harnack inequality, found by {{harvs|txt|first=R.|last=Hamilton|year=1993|txt}}, for the [[Ricci flow]]. Harnack's inequality is used to prove [[Harnack's theorem]] about the convergence of sequences of harmonic functions. Harnack's inequality also implies the [[Holder condition|regularity]] of the function in the interior of its domain. |

==Harmonic functions== |
|||
⚫ | |||
Let <math>D=D(z_0,R)</math> be an [[open_set|open]] [[ball (mathematics)|disk]] in the plane and let ''f'' be a [[harmonic function]] on ''D'' such that ''f(z)'' is non-negative for all <math>z \in D</math>. Then the following inequality holds for all <math>z \in D</math>: |
|||
⚫ | |||
[[Category:Underutilized crops]] |
|||
:<math>0\le f(z)\le \left( \frac{R}{R-\left|z-z_0\right|}\right)^2f(z_0).</math> |
|||
⚫ | |||
For general domains <math>\Omega</math> in <math>\mathbf{R}^n</math> the inequality can be stated as follows: If <math>\omega</math> is a bounded domain with <math>\bar{\omega} \subset \Omega</math>, then there is a constant <math>C</math> such that |
|||
{{Poales-stub}} |
|||
:<math> \sup_{x \in \Omega} u(x) \le C \inf_{x \in \Omega} u(x)</math> |
|||
for every twice differentiable, harmonic and nonnegative function <math>u(x)</math>. The constant <math>C</math> is independent of <math>u</math>; it depends only on the domain. |
|||
==Elliptic partial differential equations== |
|||
For elliptic partial differential equations, Harnack's inequality states that the supremum of a positive solution in some connected open region is bounded by some constant times the infimum, possibly with an added term containing a functional [[norm (mathematics)|norm]] of the data: |
|||
:<math>\sup u \le C ( \inf u + ||f||)</math> |
|||
The constant depends on the ellipticity of the equation and the connected open region. |
|||
==Parabolic partial differential equations== |
|||
There is a version of Harnack's inequality for linear parabolic PDEs such as [[heat equation]]. |
|||
Let <math>\mathcal{M}</math> be a smooth domain in <math>\mathbb{R}^n</math> and consider the linear parabolic operator |
|||
<math>\mathcal{L}u=\sum_{i,j=1}^n a_{ij}(t,\xi)\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x_i\partial x_j}+\sum_{i=1}^n b_i(t,\xi)\frac{\partial u}{\partial x_i} u + c(t,\xi)u</math> |
|||
with smooth and bounded coefficients. Suppose that <math>u(t,x)\in C^2((0,T)\times\mathcal{M})</math> is a solution of |
|||
<math>\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}-\mathcal{L}u=0\quad</math> in <math>\quad(0,T)\times\mathcal{M}</math> such that <math>\quad u(t,x)\ge0</math> in <math>\quad(0,T)\times\mathcal{M}</math>. |
|||
Let <math>K</math> be a compact subset of <math>\mathcal{M}</math> and choose <math>\tau\in(0,T)</math>. Then for each <math>\quad t\in(\tau,T)</math> there exists a constant <math>\quad C>0</math> (depending only on <math>K</math>, <math>\tau</math> and the coefficients of <math>\mathcal{L}</math>) such that |
|||
<math>\sup_K u(t-\tau,\cdot)\le C\inf_K u(t,\cdot)\,.</math> |
