Boundedness of weak solutions to degenerate Kolmogorov equations of hypoelliptic type in bounded domains
We establish the boundedness of weak subsolutions for a class of degenerate Kolmogorov equations of the hypoelliptic type, compatible with a homogeneous Lie group structure, within bounded product domains using the De Giorgi iteration. We employ the renormalization formula to handle boundary values and provide energy estimates. An – type embedding estimate derived from the fundamental solution is utilized to incorporate lower-order divergence terms. This work naturally extends the boundedness theory for uniformly parabolic equations, with matching exponents for the coefficients.
