In this paper, we study the global existence and regularity of Hölder continuous solutions for a series of nonlinear partial differential equations describing nonlinear waves.
In this paper, we prove boundary pointwise $C^{k,α}$ regularity for any $k\geq 1$ for fully nonlinear parabolic equations. As an application, we give a direct and short proof of the higher regularity of the free boundaries in obstacle-type problems.
In this paper, regularity properties of Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear abstract Schrödinger equations in vector-valued function spaces are obtained.
In this paper, we prove a boundary pointwise regularity for fully nonlinear elliptic equations on cones. In addition, based on this regularity, we give simple proofs of the Liouville theorems on cones.
In this paper we prove the Hölder regularity of bounded, uniformly continuous, viscosity solutions of some degenerate fully nonlinear equations in the Heisenberg group.
We establish an optimal C^{1,α}-regularity for viscosity solutions of degenerate/singular fully nonlinear elliptic equations by finding minimal regularity requirements on the associated operator.
We show how to infer sharp partial regularity results for relaxed minimizers of degenerate, nonuniformly elliptic quasiconvex functionals, using tools from Nonlinear Potential Theory. In particular, in the setting of functionals with $(p,q)$-growth - according to the terminology of Marcellini [52] - we derive optimal local regularity criteria under minimal assumptions on the data.
We obtain up to a flat boundary regularity results in parabolic Hölder spaces for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear parabolic equations with oblique boundary conditions.
We study the continuity in weighted Fourier Lebesgue spaces for a class of pseudodifferential operators, whose symbol has finite Fourier Lebesgue regularity with respect to $x$ and satisfies a quasi-homogeneous decay of derivatives with respect to the $ξ$ variable. Applications to Fourier Lebesgue microlocal regularity of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations are given.
Most of lipschitz regularity results for nonlinear strictly elliptic equations are obtained for a suitable growth power of the nonlinearity with respect to the gradient variable (subquadratic for instance). For equations with superquadratic growth power in gradient, one usually uses weak Bernstein-type arguments which require regularity and/or convex-type assumptions on the gradient nonlinearity. In this article, we obtain new Lipschitz regularity results for a large class of nonlinear strictly elliptic equations with possibly arbitrary growth power of the Hamiltonian with respect to the gradi…
We study the Cauchy problem for 3-D nonlinear elastic waves satisfying the null condition with low regularity initial data. In the radially symmetric case, we prove the global existence of a low regularity solution for every small data in $H^3\times H^2$ with a low weight.
In this paper, logarithmically improved regularity criteria for the Navier--Stokes/Poisson--Nernst--Planck system are established in terms of both the pressure and the gradient of pressure in the homogeneous Besov space.
We provide the Alexandroff-Bakelman-Pucci estimate and global $C^{1, α}$-regularity for a class of singular/degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equations. We also derive the existence of a viscosity solution to the Dirichlet problem with the associated operator.
In this paper, we obtain a series of regularity results for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic equations with oblique derivative boundary conditions. In particular, we derive the pointwise $C^α$, $C^{1,α}$ and $C^{2,α}$ regularity. As byproducts, we also prove the A-B-P maximum principle, Harnack inequality, uniqueness and solvability of the equations.
Despite the many applications of rate-independent systems, their regularity theory is still largely unexplored. Usually, only weak solution with potentially very low regularity are considered, which requires non-smooth techniques. In this work, however, we directly prove the existence of Hölder-regular strong solutions for a class of rate-independent systems. We also establish further assertions about higher regularity of our solutions. The proof proceeds via a time-discrete Rothe approximation, careful elliptic regularity estimates in the discrete situation and evolutionary techniques.
The interior free boundary theory for linear elliptic operators in higher dimensions was developed by Caffarelli in the low regularity context. In these notes, the up-to-the boundary free boundary regularity is discussed for nonlinear elliptic operators based on a different approach.
Existence, regularity and uniqueness of weak solutions for a class of incompressible generalized Navier-Stokes system with slip boundary conditions in $\mathbb{R}^3_+$
In this paper we establish some results concerning the existence, regularity and concentration phenomenon of nontrivial solitary waves for a Generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (GKP) equation in $\mathbb{R}^2.$ Variational methods are used to get an existence result and to study the concentration phenomenon, while the regularity is more delicate because we are leading with functions in an anisotropic Sobolev space.
We investigate the regularity of the solutions for a class of degenerate/singular fully nonlinear nonlocal equations. In the degenerate scenario, we establish that there exists at least one viscosity solution of class $C_{loc}^{1, α}$, for some constant $α\in (0, 1)$. In addition, under suitable conditions on $σ$, we prove regularity estimates in Hölder spaces for any viscosity solution. We also examine the singular setting and prove Hölder regularity estimates for the gradient of the solutions.
This paper deals with a class of nonlinear anisotropic parabolic equations with degenerate coercivity. Using the anisotropic Gagliardo-Nirenberg-type inequality, we prove some existence and regularity results for the solutions under the framework of anisotropic Sobolev spaces, which generalize the previous results of [10,18,23].
In this paper we study the existence of positive smooth solutions for a class of singular (p(x),q(x))- Laplacian systems by using sub and supersolution methods.
We consider nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equations in Fourier-Lebesgue and modulation spaces involving negative regularity. The equations are posed on the whole space, and involve a smooth power nonlinearity. We prove two types of norm inflation results. We first establish norm inflation results below the expected critical regularities. We then prove norm inflation with infinite loss of regularity under less general assumptions. To do so, we recast the theory of multiphase weakly nonlinear geometric optics for nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equations in a general abstract functional setting.
In this note, we prove $\mathcal{C}^{1,γ}$ regularity for solutions of some fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations with "superlinear" and "subquadratic " Hamiltonian terms. As an application, we complete the results of \cite{BDL1} concerning the associated ergodic problem, proving, among other facts, the uniqueness, up to constants, of the ergodic function.
This paper deals with existence and regularity of positive solutions of singular elliptic problems on a smooth bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions involving the $Φ$-Laplacian operator. The proof of existence is based on a variant of the generalized Galerkin method that we developed inspired on ideas by Browder and a comparison principle. By using a kind of Moser iteration scheme we show $L^{\infty}(Ω)$-regularity for positive solutions
We prove the local well-posedness for the nonlinear fourth-order Schrödinger equation (NL4S) in Sobolev spaces. We also studied the regularity of solutions in the sub-critical case. A direct consequence of this regularity is the global well-posedness above mass and energy spaces under some assumptions. Finally, we show the ill-posedness for (NL4S) in some cases of the super-critical range.
We prove existence and regularity results for weak solutions of non linear elliptic systems with non variational structure satisfying $(p,q)$-growth conditions. In particular we are able to prove higher differentiability results under a dimension-free gap between $p$ and $q$.
We are concerned with the initial value problem governed by generalized Rayleigh-Stokes equations, where the nonlinearity depends on history states and takes values in Hilbert scales of negative order. The solvability and Hölder regularity of solutions are proved by using fixed point arguments and embeddings of fractional Sobolev spaces. An application to a related inverse source problem is given.
In this paper we prove regularity results for a class of nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations of the form $\displaystyle -\operatorname{div}(A(|\nabla u|)\nabla u)+B\left( |\nabla u|\right) =f(u)$; in particular, we investigate the second order regularity of the solutions. As a consequence of these results, we obtain symmetry and monotonicity properties of positive solutions for this class of degenerate problems in convex symmetric domains via a suitable adaption of the celebrated moving plane method of Alexandrov-Serrin.
In this manuscript we study geometric regularity estimates for problems driven by fully nonlinear elliptic operators under strong absorption conditions. We establish improved geometric regularity along the free boundary, for a sharp value depending only on structural parameters. Non degeneracy among others measure theoretical properties are also obtained. A sharp Liouville result for entire solutions with controlled growth at infinity is proved. We also present a number of applications consequential of our findings.
We consider a class of fully nonlinear integro-differential operators where the nonlocal integral has two components: the non-degenerate one corresponds to the $α$-stable operator and the second one (possibly degenerate) corresponds to a class of \textit{lower order} Lévy measures. Such operators do not have a global scaling property. We establish Hölder regularity, Harnack inequality and boundary Harnack property of solutions of these operators.
We are concerned with the existence and regularity of the solutions to the Dirichlet problem, for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations driven by a general differential operator, depending on $(x,u,\nabla u)$, and with a convective term $f$. The assumptions on the members of the equation are formulated in terms of Young's functions, therefore we work in the Orlicz-Sobolev spaces. After establishing some auxiliary properties, that seem new in our context, we present two existence and two regularity results. We conclude with several examples.
