Boundary Regularity for Viscosity Solutions of Fully Nonlinear Elliptic Equations

چکیده
We provide regularity results at the boundary for continuous viscosity solutions to nonconvex fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations and inequalities in Euclidian domains. We show that (i) any solution of two sided inequalities with Pucci extremal operators is C1,α on the boundary; (ii) the solution of the Dirichlet problem for fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations is C2,α on the boundary; (iii) corresponding asymptotic expansions hold. This is an extension to viscosity solutions of the classical Krylov estimates for smooth solutions.

Local C Estimates for Viscosity Solutions of Neumann-type Boundary Value Problems
In this article, we prove the local C0,α regularity and provide C0,α estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear, possibly degenerate, elliptic equations associated to linear or nonlinear Neumann type boundary conditions. The interest of these results comes from the fact that they are indeed regularity results (and not only a priori estimates), from the generality of the equations and ...
متن کاملOptimal Regularity of Viscosity Solutions of Fully Nonlinear Singular Equations and Their Limiting Free Boundary Problems
In the present paper, we start the journey of investigation into fully nonlinear elliptic singular equations of the form F (D2u, x) = βε(uε), where βε(uε) converges to the Dirac delta measure δ0. We show optimal regularity, uniform in ε, as well as H1 compactness for Bellman’s singular equations. We also provide a complete picture of limiting one-dimensional profiles. The study of further geome...
متن کاملComparison principles and Lipschitz regularity for some nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations
We establish interior Lipschitz regularity for continuous viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear, conformally invariant, degenerate elliptic equations. As a by-product of our method, we also prove a weak form of the strong comparison principle, which we refer to as the principle of propagation of touching points, for operators of the form ∇2ψ + L(x, ψ,∇ψ) which are non-decreasing in ψ.
متن کاملSolutions of Fully Nonlinear Elliptic Equations with Patches of Zero Gradient: Existence, Regularity and Convexity of Level Curves
In this paper, we first construct “viscosity” solutions (in the Crandall-Lions sense) of fully nonlinear elliptic equations of the form F (Du, x) = g(x, u) on {|∇u| 6= 0} In fact, viscosity solutions are surprisingly weak. Since candidates for solutions are just continuous, we only require that the “test” polynomials P (those tangent from above or below to the graph of u at a point x0) satisfy ...
متن کاملSecond Order Estimates and Regularity for Fully Nonlinear Elliptic Equations on Riemannian Manifolds
We derive a priori second order estimates for solutions of a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under structure conditions which are close to optimal. We treat both equations on closed manifolds, and the Dirichlet problem on manifolds with boundary without any geometric restrictions to the boundary. These estimates yield regularity and existence results some of ...
