In this paper, we consider the Neumann problem for parabolic Hessian quotient equations. We show that the $k$-admissible solution of the parabolic Hessian quotient equation exists for all time and converges to the smooth solution of elliptic Hessian quotient equations. Also the solutions of the classical Neumann problem converge to a translating solution.
In this paper, we establish global C^2 estimates for a class of mixed Hessian equations with Neumann boundary condition, and obtain the existence theorem of k-admissible solutions for the classical Neumann problem of these mixed Hessian equations.
We prove the symmetry of solutions to overdetermined problems for a class of fully nonlinear equations, namely Hessian quotient equations and Hessian quotient curvature equations. Our approach is based on establishing a Rellich-Pohozaev type identity for Hessian quotient equations and using a P function. Our result generalizes the overdetermined problems for k-Hessian equations and k-curvature equations.
In this paper, we consider a Class of Hessian quotient equations in Euclidean space. Under some sufficient condition, we obtain an existence result by the standard degree theory based on the a prior estimates for the solutions to the Hessian quotient equations.
In this paper, we obtain some important inequalities of Hessian quotient operators, and global $C^2$ estimates of the Neumann problem of Hessian quotient equations. By the method of continuity, we establish the existence theorem of $k$-admissible solutions of the Neumann problem of Hessian quotient equations.
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 study the {\it a priori} gradient estimates for admissible solutions to Neumann boundary value problem of fully nonlinear Hessian equations on Riemannian manifolds. We firstly derive an interior gradient estimates for admissible solutions, then we obtain boundary gradient estimates based on the interior gradient estimates we have got.
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem of Hessian quotient equations in exterior domains. By estimating the eigenvalues of the solution, the necessary and sufficient conditions on existence of radial solutions are obtained. Applying the solutions of ODE, the viscosity subsolutions and supersolutions are constructed and then the existence of viscosity solutions for exterior problems is established by the Perron's method.
In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness theorem for solutions of the exterior Dirichlet problem for Hessian quotient equations with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity. This extends the previous related results on the Monge-Ampère equations and on the Hessian equations, and rearranges them in a systematic way. Based on the Perron's method, the main ingredient of this paper is to construct some appropriate subsolutions of the Hessian quotient equation, which is realized by introducing some new quantities about the elementary symmetric functions and using them to analyze …
In this paper, we consider the exterior Dirichlet problem for Hessian quotient equations with the right hand side $g$, where $g$ is a positive function and $g=1+O(|x|^{-β})$ near infinity, for some $β>2$. Under a prescribed generalized symmetric asymptotic behavior at infinity, we establish an existence and uniqueness theorem for viscosity solutions, by using comparison principles and Perron's method. This extends the previous results for Monge--Ampère equations and Hessian equations.
In this paper, we consider the Neumann problem of a class of mixed complex Hessian equations, and establish the global C^1 estimates a nd reduce the global second derivative estimate to the estimate of double normal second derivatives on the boundary. In particular, we can prove the global C^2 estimates and the existence theorems when k=n.

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.
Recently, the first named author together with Xinan Ma \cite{ma2015neumann}, have proved the existence of the Neumann problems for Hessian equations. In this paper, we proceed further to study classical Neumann problems for Hessian equations. We prove here the existence of classical Neumann problems under the uniformly convex domain in R^n. As an application, we use the solution of the classical Neumann problem to give a new proof of a family of Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities arising from convex geometry. This geometric application is motivated from Reilly \cite{Reilly1980}.
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.
It is well-known that a celebrated Jörgens-Calabi-Pogorelov theorem for Monge-Ampère equations states that any classical (viscosity) convex solution of $\det(D^2u)=1$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ must be a quadratic polynomial. Therefore, it is an interesting topic to study the existence and uniqueness theorem of such fully nonlinear partial differential equations' Dirichlet problems on exterior domains with suitable asymptotic conditions at infinity. As a continuation of the works of Caffarelli-Li for Monge-Ampère equation and of Bao-Li-Li for $k$-Hessian equations, this paper is devoted to the solvabil…
The Hessian quotient equatio were studied for k-th symmetric elementary function S_k(D^2u) of eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix D^2u. Two pointwise quadratic growth conditions were found by Bao-Cheng-Guan-Ji ([1], American J. Math., 2003, 125, 301-316) ensuring Bernstein properties of Hessian quotient equation or k-Hessian equation respectively. In this paper, we will drop the point wise quadratic growth condition of [1] and prove three necessary and sufficient conditions to Bernstein property of (0.1) and (0.2), using a reverse isoperimetric type inequality, volume growth or Lp-integrable res…
Let $Ω$ be a bounded domain (with smooth boundary) on the hyperbolic plane $\mathscr{H}^{n}(1)$, of center at origin and radius $1$, in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_{1}$. In this paper, by using a priori estimates, we can establish Pogorelov type estimates of $k$-convex solutions to a class of Hessian quotient equations defined over $Ω\subset\mathscr{H}^{n}(1)$ and with the vanishing Dirichlet boundary condition.
The curvature estimates of quotient curvature equation do not always exist even for convex setting \cite{GRW}. Thus it is natural question to find other type of elliptic equations possessing curvature estimates. In this paper, we discuss the existence of curvature estimate for fully nonlinear elliptic equations defined by symmetric polynomials, mainlly, the linear combination of elementary symmetric polynomials.
In this paper, we study fully nonlinear second-order elliptic and parabolic equations with Neumann boundary conditions on compact Riemannian manifolds with smooth boundary. We derive oscillation bounds for admissible solutions with Neumann boundary condition $u_ν= ϕ(x)$ assuming the existence of suitable $\mathcal{C}$-subsolutions. We use a parabolic approach to derive a solution of a $k$-Hessian equation with Neumann boundary condition $u_ν= ϕ(x)$ under suitable assumptions.
In this paper, we study global regularity for oblique boundary value problems of augmented Hessian equations for a class of general operators. By assuming a natural convexity condition of the domain together with appropriate convexity conditions on the matrix function in the augmented Hessian, we develop a global theory for classical elliptic solutions by establishing global a priori derivative estimates up to second order. Besides the known applications for Monge-Amp`ere type operators in optimal transportation and geometric optics, the general theory here embraces prescribed mean curvature p…
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.
A $C^2$ function on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is called strictly $(n-1)$-convex if the sum of any $n-1$ eigenvalues of its Hessian is positive. In this paper, we establish a global $C^2$ estimates to the Monge-Ampère equation for strictly $(n-1)$-convex functions with Neumann condition. By the method of continuity, we prove an existence theorem for strictly $(n-1)$-convex solutions of the Neumann problems.
In this paper, we mainly establish the existence and uniqueness theorem for solutions of the exterior Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear second-order elliptic equations related to the eigenvalues of the Hessian, with prescribed generalized symmetric asymptotic behavior at infinity. Moreover, we give some new results for the Hessian equations, Hessian quotient equations and the special Lagrangian equations, which have been studied previously.
We treat the exterior Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations of the form $$f(λ(D^2u))=g(x),$$ with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity. The equations of this type had been studied extensively by Caffarelli--Nirenberg--Spruck \cite{Caffarelli1985}, Trudinger \cite{Trudinger1995} and many others, and there had been significant discussions on the solvability of the classical Dirichlet problem via the continuity method, under the assumption that $f$ is a concave function. In this paper, based on the Perron's method, we establish an exterior existence and uniquen…
A viscosity approach is introduced for the Dirichlet problem associated to complex Hessian type equations on domains in $\C^n$. The arguments are modelled on the theory of viscosity solutions for real Hessian type equations developed by Trudinger. As consequence we solve the Dirichlet problem for the Hessian quotient and special Lagrangian equations. We also establish basic regularity results for the solutions.
