Weak maximum principle with a nonnegative potential #
For the equation -div (a grad u) + (alpha + q) u = 0 with alpha > 0 and
q >= 0, a solution whose positive part above a nonnegative level has zero
trace is bounded by that level. The proof tests the equation with the
truncation itself: the elliptic term is nonnegative on the superlevel set and
the mass term is bounded below by the square of the truncation.
Main results #
The zero-trace witness of a positive-part truncation, as a test function.

Weak maximum principle: a solution of -div (a grad u) + (alpha + q) u = 0
whose positive part above a nonnegative level has zero trace lies below that
level almost everywhere.
