# Potential estimates and applications to elliptic equations

• In this paper we prove a potential type estimate for the solutions of some classes of Dirichlet problems associated to certain non divergence structure elliptic equations with smooth datum. As a consequence of our potential bound, we can get an a priori estimate for the solutions of the same kind of Dirichlet problem, but with less regular datum.
