  • In this paper, we classify all solutions bounded from below to uniformly elliptic equations of second order in the form of Lu(x) = aij(x)Diju(x) + bi(x)Diu(x) + c(x)u(x) = f(x) or Lu(x) = Di(aij(x)Dju(x)) + bi(x)Diu(x) + c(x)u(x) = f(x) in unbounded cylinders. After establishing that the Aleksandrov maximum principle and boundary Harnack inequality hold for bounded solutions, we show that all solutions bounded from below are linear combinations of solutions, which are sums of two special solutions that exponential growth at one end and exponential decay at the another end, and a bounded solution that corresponds to the inhomogeneous term f of the equation.
