Remarks on the gradient of an infinity-harmonic function.
We present a smooth regularity result for strictly Levi convex solutions to the Levi Monge-Ampère equation. It is a fully nonlinear PDE which is degenerate elliptic. Hence elliptic techniques fail in this situation and we build a new theory in order to treat this new topic. Our technique is inspired to those introduced in [3] and [8] for the study of degenerate elliptic quasilinear PDE’s related to the Levi mean curvature equation. When the right hand side has the meaning of total curvature of a...
We investigate the following quasilinear and singular problem,where is an open bounded domain with smooth boundary, , , , and . As usual, if , is arbitrarily large if , and if . We employ variational methods in order to show the existence of at least two distinct (positive) solutions of problem (P) in . While following an approach due to Ambrosetti-Brezis-Cerami, we need to prove two new results of separate interest: a strong comparison principle and a regularity result for solutions...
This is the expanded text of a lecture about viscosity solutions of degenerate elliptic equations delivered at the XVI Congresso UMI. The aim of the paper is to review some fundamental results of the theory as developed in the last twenty years and to point out some of its recent developments and applications.
Using a Hardy-type inequality, the authors weaken certain assumptions from the paper [1] and derive existence results for equations with a stronger degeneration.
