Alternative forms of the Harnack inequality for non-negative solutions to certain degenerate and singular parabolic equations (Q1039877)

The paper deals with the Harnack inequality-type for non negative solution of some degenerate and singular parabolic equations. The authors prove some equivalent forms of this inequality, where the the supremum and the infimum of the solutions play a symmetric roles, within a properly redefined geometry. Such equivalent forms hold for the non-degenerate case \(p=2\) and also in the intrinsic geometry for some degenerate and/or parabolic equation as \(p\)-Laplacian with \(p>\frac{2N}{N+1}\). Moreover some new forms are established for \(1<p<2\).
