    Summary: The aim of this paper is to study a new equivalent form of the weak maximum principle for a large class of differential operators on Riemannian manifolds. This new form has been inspired by the work of Berestycki, Hamel and Rossi for trace operators, and allows us to shed new light on it and to introduce a new sufficient bounded Khas'minskii type condition for its validity. We show its effectiveness by applying it to obtain some uniqueness results in a geometric setting.
