This work is devoted to a systematic study of the microlocal regularity properties of pseudo-differential operators with the transmission property. We introduce a “boundary singular spectrum”, denoted $\partial W{F}_{\omega }\left(u\right)$ for distributions $u\in D^{\text{'}}({\mathbf{R}}_{+}^n)$, regular in the normal variable $x_n$ (thus, $\partial W{F}_{\omega }\left(u\right)=\varnothing$ means that $u\in {\cap }_{s+t=1/2}{H}^{s+t}$ near the boundary), and it is shown that $\partial W{F}_{\omega -m}\left[P\right(u^0{)}_{x_n\>0}]$ is a subset of $\partial WF\left(u\right)$ if $P$ has degree $m$ and the transmission property. We finally prove that these results can bef used to examinate the (microlocal) regularity of the solutions of differential...

In this paper we prove that every weak and strong local minimizer $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega ,{ℝ}^3)$ of the functional $I\left(u\right)={\int }_{\Omega }{\left|Du\right|}^2+f\left(\mathrm{Adj}Du\right)+g\left(\det Du\right),$ where $u:\Omega \subset {ℝ}^3\to {ℝ}^3$, f grows like ${\left|\mathrm{Adj}Du\right|}^p$, g grows like ${\left|\det Du\right|}^q$ and 1<q<p<2, is $C^{1,\alpha }$ on an open subset ${\Omega }_0$ of Ω such that $\mathrm{𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠}(\Omega \setminus {\Omega }_0)=0$. Such functionals naturally arise from nonlinear elasticity problems. The key point in order to obtain the partial regularity result is to establish an energy estimate of Caccioppoli type, which is based on an appropriate choice of the test functions. The limit case $p=q\le 2$ is also treated for weak local minimizers. ...

In a recent paper [Forum Math., 2008] the authors established some global, up to the boundary of a domain Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ, continuity and Morrey regularity results for almost minimizers of functionals of the form $u\mapsto {\int }_{\Omega }g(x,u\left(x\right),\nabla u\left(x\right))dx$. The main assumptions for these results are that g is asymptotically convex and that it satisfies some growth conditions. In this article, we present a specialized but significant version of this general result. The primary purpose of this paper is provide several applications of this simplified...

The existence of two continuous solutions for a nonlinear singular elliptic equation with natural growth in the gradient is proved for the Dirichlet problem in the unit ball centered at the origin. The first continuous solution is positive and maximal; it is obtained via the regularization method. The second continuous solution is zero at the origin, and follows by considering the corresponding radial ODE and by sub-sup solutions method.

The global existence theorem of classical solutions for one-dimensional nonlinear thermoelasticity is proved for small and smooth initial data in the case of a bounded reference configuration for a homogeneous medium, considering the Neumann type boundary conditions: traction free and insulated. Moreover, the asymptotic behaviour of solutions is investigated.

We consider nondiagonal elliptic and parabolic systems of equations with quadratic nonlinearities in the gradient. We discuss a new description of regular points of solutions of such systems. For a class of strongly nonlinear parabolic systems, we estimate locally the Hölder norm of a solution. Instead of smallness of the oscillation, we assume local smallness of the Campanato seminorm of the solution under consideration. Theorems about quasireverse Hölder inequalities proved by the author are essentially...

In questo articolo si ottengono stime di Schauder di tipo nuovo per equazioni ellittiche infinito-dimensionali del secondo ordine con coefficienti Hölderiani a valori nello spazio degli operatori Hilbert-Schmidt. In particolare si mostra che la derivata seconda delle soluzioni è Hilbert-Schmidt.

It is proved that the solution to the initial value problem ${\partial }_{t}u=\partial {²}_{x}u+u²$, u(0,x) = 1/(1+x²), does not belong to the Gevrey class $G^s$ in time for 0 ≤ s < 1. The proof is based on an estimation of a double sum of products of binomial coefficients.
