Harnack inequality for superposition operators of mixed fractional order

Abstract: The main aim of this paper is to establish the Hölder continuity and the Harnack inequality for weak solutions to Dirichlet problems associated with superposition operators of mixed fractional order, thereby complementing our previous work \cite{BGKL2026}. To achieve this, we extend the De Giorgi--Nash--Moser theory to the framework of superposition operators by introducing a novel {\it nonlocal superposition tail}, which appears to be the first contribution of its kind in the literature. The obtained results are new even in the classical linear case $p=2$, thereby illustrating the broader applicability of the analytical techniques developed in this work. As intermediate steps toward the proof of the main results, we also establish a logarithmic estimate for weak supersolutions, local boundedness for weak subsolutions, a weak Harnack inequality for weak supersolutions, an expansion of positivity for weak supersolutions, and tail estimates for weak solutions.
