The p-Laplace equation in a class of Hormander vector fields

We find the fundamental solution to the p-Laplace equation in a class of Hormander vector fields that generate neither a Carnot group nor a Grushin-type space. The singularity occurs at the sub-Riemannian points, which naturally corresponds to finding the fundamental solution of a generalized op...

description We find the fundamental solution to the p-Laplace equation in a class of Hormander vector fields that generate neither a Carnot group nor a Grushin-type space. The singularity occurs at the sub-Riemannian points, which naturally corresponds to finding the fundamental solution of a generalized operator in Euclidean space. We then extend these solutions to a generalization of the p-Laplace equation and use these solutions to find infinite harmonic functions and their generalizations. We also compute the capacity of annuli centered at the singularity.
