Abstract
This paper gives probabilistic expressions of the minimal and maximal positive solutions of the partial differential equation -1/2δv(x)+γ(x)v(x)α=0 in D, where D is a regular domain in ℝd(d⩾ 3) such that its complement D c is compact, γ(x) is a positive bounded integrable function in D, and 1 2. As an application, some necessary and sufficient conditions for a compact set to be S-polar are presented.
