Global Lipschitz continuity for elliptic transmission problems with a boundary intersecting interface

Pierre-Etienne Druet (2013)

Mathematica Bohemica

We investigate the regularity of the weak solution to elliptic transmission problems that involve two layered anisotropic materials separated by a boundary intersecting interface. Under a pair of compatibility conditions for the angle of the two surfaces and the boundary data at the contact line, we prove the existence of up to the boundary square-integrable second derivatives, and the global Lipschitz continuity of the solution. If only the weakest, necessary condition is satisfied, we show that...

Global Schauder estimates for a class of degenerate Kolmogorov equations

Enrico Priola (2009)

Studia Mathematica

We consider a class of possibly degenerate second order elliptic operators on ℝⁿ. This class includes hypoelliptic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type operators having an additional first order term with unbounded coefficients. We establish global Schauder estimates in Hölder spaces both for elliptic equations and for parabolic Cauchy problems involving . The Hölder spaces in question are defined with respect to a possibly non-Euclidean metric related to the operator . Schauder estimates are deduced by sharp...

Gradient estimates for a nonlinear equation Δ f u + c u - α = 0 on complete noncompact manifolds

Jing Zhang, Bingqing Ma (2011)

Communications in Mathematics

Let ( M , g ) be a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. We consider gradient estimates on positive solutions to the following nonlinear equation Δ f u + c u - α = 0 in M , where α , c are two real constants and α > 0 , f is a smooth real valued function on M and Δ f = Δ - f . When N is finite and the N -Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor is bounded from below, we obtain a gradient estimate for positive solutions of the above equation. Moreover, under the assumption that -Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor is bounded from below and | f | is bounded from above,...
