Powers Of Generators On Dirichlet Spaces And Applications To Harnack Principles
We provide a general framework for the realization of powers or functions of suitable operators on Dirichlet spaces. The first contribution is to unify the available results dealing with specific geometries; a second one is to provide new results on rather general metric measured spaces that were not considered before and fall naturally in the theory of Dirichlet spaces. The main tool is using the approach based on subordination and semi-groups by Stinga and Torrea. Assuming more on the Dirichlet space, we derive several applications to PDEs such as Harnack and Boundary Harnack principles.
