Abstract
We prove that the Dirichlet problem for degenerate elliptic equations in the upper half-space is solvable when and the boundary data is in for some . The coefficient matrix is only assumed to be measurable, real-valued and -independent with a degenerate bound and ellipticity controlled by an -weight . It is not required to be symmetric. The result is achieved by proving a Carleson measure estimate for all bounded solutions in order to deduce that the degenerate elliptic measure is in with respect to the -weighted Lebesgue measure on . The Carleson measure estimate allows us to avoid applying the method of -approximability, which simplifies the proof obtained recently in the case of uniformly elliptic coefficients. The results have natural extensions to Lipschitz domains.
