The boundary Harnack principle for nonlocal elliptic operators in non-divergence form

We prove a boundary Harnack inequality for nonlocal elliptic operators $L$ in non-divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients. Namely, our main result establishes that if $Lu_1=Lu_2=0$ in $Ω\cap B_1$, $u_1=u_2=0$ in $B_1\setminusΩ$, and $u_1,u_2\geq0$ in $\mathbb R^n$, then $u_1$ and $u_2$ are comparable in $B_{1/2}$. The result applies to arbitrary open sets $Ω$. When $Ω$ is Lipschitz, we show that the quotient $u_1/u_2$ is Hölder continuous up to the boundary in $B_{1/2}$.
