We prove a Harnack inequality for solutions to $L_A u = 0$ where the elliptic matrix $A$ is adapted to a convex function satisfying minimal geometric conditions. An application to Sobolev inequalities is included.
We characterize when radial weak solutions to Monge-Ampere equations are smooth. This paper extends previous partial results and also covers Generalized Monge-Ampere equations and infinitely vanishing right hand side.
We present two comparison principles for viscosity sub- and supersolutions of Monge-Ampere-type equations associated to a family of vector fields. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness of a viscosity solution to the Dirichlet problem for the equation of prescribed horizontal Gauss curvature in a Carnot group.
The aim of this note is to prove that almost-minimizers of the perimeter are Reifenberg flat, for a very weak notion of minimality. The main observation is that smallness of the excess at some scale implies smallness of the excess at all smaller scales.
We continue to study regularity results for weak solutions of the large class of second order degenerate quasilinear equations of the form begin{eqnarray} text{div}big(A(x,u, abla u)big) = B(x,u, abla u)text{ for }xinOmega onumber end{eqnarray} as considered in our previous paper giving local boundedness of weak solutions. Here we derive a version of Harnacks inequality as well as local Holder continuity for weak solutions. The possible degeneracy of an equation in the class is expressed in terms of a nonnegative definite quadratic form associated with its principal part. No smoothness is required of either the quadratic form or the coefficients of the equation. Our results extend ones obtained by J. Serrin and N. Trudinger for quasilinear equations, as well as ones for subelliptic linear equations obtained by Sawyer and Wheeden in their 2006 AMS memoir article.
Given the standard Gaussian measure $gamma$ on the countable product of lines $mathbb{R}^{infty}$ and a probability measure $g cdot gamma$ absolutely continuous with respect to $gamma$, we consider the optimal transportation $T(x) = x + abla varphi(x)$ of $g cdot gamma$ to $gamma$. Assume that the function $| abla g|^2/g$ is $gamma$-integrable. We prove that the function $varphi$ is regular in a certain Sobolev-type sense and satisfies the classical change of variables formula $g = {det}_2(I + D^2 varphi) exp bigl(mathcal{L} varphi - 1/2 | abla varphi|^2 bigr)$. We also establish sufficient conditions for the existence of third order derivatives of $varphi$.
