Abstract: We prove that for every $p>1$ and for every potential $Vin{L}^p$, any nonnegative function satisfying $-Deltau+Vuge0$ in an open connected set of $mathbb{R}^N$ is either identically zero or its level set $u=0$ has zero $W^{2,p}$ capacity. This gives an affirmative answer to an open problem of B'enilan and Brezis concerning a bridge between Serrin-Stampacchia's strong maximum principle for $p>fracN2$ and Ancona's strong maximum principle for $p=1$. The proof is based on the construction of suitable test functions depending on the level set $u=0$ and on the existence of solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the Schr"odinger operator with diffuse measure data.
