In this paper, we derive an \emph{a priori} second order estimate for solutions which are in $Γ_{k+1}$ cone to a class of complex Hessian equations with both sides of the equation depending on the gradient on compact Hermitian manifolds.
We solve the classical Dirichlet problem for a general complex Hessian equation on a small ball in $\bC^n$. Then, we show that there is a continuous solution, in pluripotential theory sense, to the Dirichlet problem on compact Hermitian manifolds with boundary that equipped locally conformal Kähler metrics, provided a subsolution.
In this paper, using the technical tools in \cite{TW5}, we solve the complex Hessian equation on closed Hermitian manifolds, which generalizes the the Kähler case results in \cite{HMW} and \cite{DK}.
In this paper we study the Dirichlet problem for a class of Hessian type equation with its structure as a combination of elementary symmetric functions on Hermitian manifolds. Under some conditions with the initial data on manifolds and admissible subsolutions, we derive a priori estimates for this complex mixed Hessian equation and solvability of the corresponding Dirichlet problem.
In this paper, we study Hessian equations and complex quotient equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We directly derive the uniform estimate for the admissible solution. As an application, we solve general Hessian equations on closed Kähler manifolds.
We find sharp bounds for the norm inequality on a Pseudo-hermitian manifold, where the L^2 norm of all second derivatives of the function involving horizontal derivatives is controlled by the L^2 norm of the sub-Laplacian. Perturbation allows us to get a-priori bounds for solutions to sub-elliptic PDE in non-divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients. The method of proof is through a Bochner technique. The Heisenberg group is seen to be en extremal manifold for our inequality in the class of manifolds whose Ricci curvature is non-negative.
We prove the long-time existence and convergence of solutions to a general class of parabolic equations, not necessarily concave in the Hessian of the unknown function, on a compact Hermitian manifold. The limiting function is identified as the solution of an elliptic complex Monge-Ampère equation.
Let $(X,ω)$ be a compact Kähler manifold of dimension $n$ and fix $m\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $1\leq m \leq n$. We prove that any $(ω,m)$-sh function can be approximated from above by smooth $(ω,m)$-sh functions. A potential theory for the complex Hessian equation is also developed which generalizes the classical pluripotential theory on compact Kähler manifolds. We then use novel variational tools due to Berman, Boucksom, Guedj and Zeriahi to study degenerate complex Hessian equations.
We study viscosity solutions to complex hessian equations. In the local case, we consider $Ω$ a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n,$ $β$ the standard Kähler form in $\mathcal{C}^n$ and $1\leq m\leq n.$ Under some suitable conditions on $F, g$, we prove that the equation $(dd^c φ)^m\wedgeβ^{n-m}=F(x,φ)β^n,\ \f=g$ on $\pO$ admits a unique viscosity solution modulo the existence of subsolution and supersolution. If moreover, the datum are Hölder continuous then so is the solution. In the global case, let $(X,ω)$ be a compact hermitian homogeneous manifold where $ω$ is an invariant hermitian metric (…
In this paper, we derive $C^2$ estimates for a class of mixed Hessian type equations with Dirichlet boundary condition, and obtain the existence theorem of admissible solutions for the classical Dirichlet problem of these mixed Hessian type equations.
The author extends previous results to general classes of equations under weaker assumptions obtained in 2016 by Bao, Dong and Jiao concerning the study of the regularity of solutions for the first initial-boundary value problem for parabolic Hessian equations on Riemannian manifolds.
In this paper, we consider a class of Hessian type equations which include the $(n-1)$ Monge-Ampère equation on Riemannian manifolds. The \emph{a priori} $C^2$ estimates and the existence of solutions are established.
In this paper, we consider the Dirichlet problem for a class of Hessian quotient equations on Riemannian manifolds. Under the assumption of an admissible subsolution, we solve the existence and the uniquness for the Dirichlet problem in a domain without any geometric restrictions on the boundary, based on the a priori estimates for the solutions to the Hessian quotient type equations.
In this paper, we consider Hessian equations with its structure as a combination of elementary symmetric functions on closed Kähler manifolds. We provide a sufficient and necessary condition for the solvability of these equations, which generalize the results of Hessian equations and Hessian quotient equations.
In this paper, complex Hessian equation over Kähler manifold was studied. Under the condition that the underline Kähler manifold has non-negative holomorphic bisectional curvature, the existence and regularity of the solution was proved.
In this paper, we establish second order estimates for a general class of fully nonlinear equations with linear gradient terms on compact almost Hermitian manifolds. As an application, we first prove the existence of solutions for the Monge-Ampère equation with linear gradient terms for $(n-1)$-plurisubharmonic functions, originated from Gaudochon conjecture, in the almost Hermitian setting. Second, we solve the Monge-Ampère equation and Hessian equations with linear gradient terms. Third, we give the $C^{\infty}$ a priori estimates for the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation with supercrit…
In this paper, we prove the $C^{1, 1}$-regularity of the plurisubharmonic envelope of a $C^{1,1}$ function on a compact Hermitian manifold. We also present examples to show this regularity is sharp.
In this paper, we establish the second order estimates of solutions to the first initial-boundary value problem for general Hessian type fully nonlinear parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds. The techniques used in this article can work for a wide range of fully nonlinear PDEs under very general conditions.
We show the $C^0$ estimate for solutions to Hessian quotient equations on hyperKähler with torsion manifolds without any additional assumption on its hypercomplex structure by a clever use of the cone condition directly.
In this paper, we derive a priori estimates for the gradient and second order derivatives of solutions to a class of Hessian type fully nonlinear parabolic equations with the first initial-boundary value problem on Riemannian manifolds. These a priori estimates are derived under conditions which are nearly optimal. Especially, there are no geometric restrictions on the boundary of the Riemannian manifolds. And as an application, the existence of smooth solutions to the first initial-boundary value problem even for infinity time is obtained.
In this paper, we are concerned with the first initial boundary value problem for a class of fully nonlinear parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds. As usual, the establishment of the a priori C^2 estimates is our main part. Based on these estimates, the existence of classical solutions is proved under conditions which are nearly optimal.
In this paper, we consider a class of Hessian quotient equations in the warped product manifold $\overline{M}=I\times_λM$. Under some sufficient conditions, we obtain an existence result for the star-shaped compact hypersurface $Σ$ in $\overline{M}$ using standard degree theory based on a priori estimates for solutions to the Hessian quotient equations.
We are concerned with a priori estimates for the obstacle problem of a wide class of fully nonlinear equations on Riemannian manifolds. We use new techniques introduced by Bo Guan and derive new results for a priori second order estimates of its singular perturbation problem under fairly general conditions. By approximation, the existence of a C^{1,1} viscosity solution is proved.
We study the long time behavior of the Hesse-Koszul flow on compact Hessian manifolds. When the first affine Chern class is negative, we prove that the flow converges to the unique Hesse-Einstein metric. We also derive a convergence result for a twisted Hesse-Koszul flow on any compact Hessian manifold. These results give alternative proofs for the existence of the unique Hesse-Einstein metric by Cheng-Yau and Caffarelli-Viaclovsky as well as the real Calabi theorem by Cheng-Yau, Delanoë and Caffarelli-Viaclovsky.
We solve the Dirichlet problem for $k$-Hessian equations on compact complex manifolds with boundary, given the existence of a subsolution. Our method is based on a second order a priori estimate of the solution on the boundary with a particular gradient scale. The scale allows us to apply a blow-up argument to obtain control on all necessary norms of the solution.
We consider degenerate Monge-Ampère equations on compact Hessian manifolds. We establish compactness properties of the set of normalized quasi-convex functions and show local and global comparison principles for twisted Monge-Ampère operators. We then use the Perron method to solve Monge-Ampère equations whose RHS involves an arbitrary probability measure, generalizing works of Cheng-Yau, Delanoë, Caffarelli-Viaclovsky and Hultgren-Önnheim. The intrinsic approach we develop should be useful in deriving similar results on mildly singular Hessian varieties, in line with the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow…
We obtain a priori local pointwise second derivative estimates for solutions $u$ to a class of augmented Hessian equations on Riemannian manifolds, in terms of the $C^1$ norm and certain $W^{2,p}$ norms of $u$. We consider the case that no structural assumptions are imposed on either the augmenting term or the right hand side of the equation, and the case where these terms are convex in the gradient variable. In the latter case, under an additional ellipticity condition we prove that the dependence on any $W^{2,p}$ norm can be dropped. Our results are derived using integral estimates.
In this paper, we establish a priori estimates for solutions of a general class of fully non-linear equations on compact almost Hermitian manifolds. As an application, we solve the complex Hessian equation and the Monge--Ampère equation for $(n-1)$-plurisubharmonic equations in the almost Hermitian setting.
We study a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. Under the assumption of cone condition, we derive the $L^\infty$ estimate directly.
We derive a priori estimates for second order derivatives of solutions to a wide calss of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds. The equations we consider naturally appear in geometric problems and other applications such as optimal transportation. There are some fundamental assumptions in the literature to ensure the equations to be elliptic and that one can apply Evans-Krylov theorem once estimates up to second derivatives are derived. However, in previous work one needed extra assumptions which are more technical in nature to overcome various difficulties. In this paper…
In this paper, we consider the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation on closed almost Hermitian manifolds. In the case of hypercritical phase, we derive a priori estimates under the existence of an admissible $\mathcal{C}$-subsolution. As an application, we prove the existence of solutions for the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation under the condition of existence of a supersolution.
Let $(X, ω)$ be a compact connected Hermitian manifold of dimension $n$. We consider the Bott-Chern cohomology and let $[χ] \in H^{1,1}_{\text{BC}}(X; \mathbb{R})$. We study the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation, which is the following nonlinear elliptic equation $\sum_{i} \arctan (λ_i) = h(x)$, where $λ_i$ are the eigenvalues of $χ$ with respect to $ω$.
We study generalized complex Monge-Ampère type equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We derive {\em a priori} estimates and then prove the existence of admissible solutions. Moreover, the gradient estimate is improved.
We study a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We derive $C^\infty$ {\em a priori} estimates, and then prove the existence of admissible solutions. In the approach, a new Hermitian metic is constructed to launch the method of continuity.
Under structural conditions which are almost optimal, we derive a quantitative version of boundary estimate then prove existence of solutions to Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Hermitian manifolds.
On non-Kähler manifolds the notion of harmonic maps is modified to that of Hermitian harmonic maps in order to be compatible with the complex structure. The resulting semilinear elliptic system is {\it not} in divergence form. The case of noncompact complete preimage and target manifolds is considered. We give conditions for existence and uniqueness of Hermitian-harmonic maps and solutions of the corresponding parabolic system, which observe the non-divergence form of the underlying equations. Numerous examples illustrate the theoretical results and the fundamental difference to harmonic maps.
