Abstract
We prove some one-side Liouville-type theorems in halfspaces for a class of evolution hypoelliptic equations. The operators we deal with are left translation invariant, and homogeneous of degree two, on homogeneous Lie groups on \(\mathbb{R}^{N + 1}\).
Keywords: Parabolic operators, Liouville Theorems, Liouville Theorems in halfspaces
