In this paper we obtain interior regularity estimates for viscosity solutions of nonlocal Dirichlet problems that degenerate when the gradient of the solution vanishes. Interior Hölder estimates are obtained when the order of the fractional diffusion is less or equal than one, and Lipschitz estimates when it is bigger than one. In the latter case, the estimates are robust enough to conclude interior $C^{1, α}$ regularity by an improvement of the flatness procedure, which is possible when the nonlocal term is close enough to a second-order diffusion.
We obtain parabolic transmission eigenvalue-free regions for both isotropic andanisotropic interior transmission problems with coefficients which are Lipschitznear the boundary
This paper is concerned with interior regularity of viscosity solutions of non-translation invariant nonlocal fully nonlinear equations with Dini continuous terms. We obtain $C^σ$ regularity estimates for the nonlocal equations by perturbative methods and a version of a recursive Evans-Krylov theorem.
We prove a $C^{1,α}$ interior regularity theorem for fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic integro-differential equations without assuming any regularity of the kernel. We then give some applications to linear theory and higher regularity of a special class of nonlinear operators.
We prove interior Lipschitz regularity result for weak and viscosity solutions of the pseudo $p$Laplacien $(p-1)\sum_i |\partial_i u|^{p-2} \partial_{ii} u = f$ for $p>2$ and $f$ bounded.
We establish interior and up to the boundary Hölder regularity estimates for weak solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the fractional $g-$Laplacian with bounded right hand side and $g$ convex. These are the first regularity results available in the literature for integro-differential equations in the context of fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces.
We consider surfaces which minimize a nonlocal perimeter functional and we discuss their interior regularity and rigidity properties, in a quantitative and qualitative way, and their (perhaps rather surprising) boundary behavior. We present at least a sketch of the proofs of these results, in a way that aims to be as elementary and self contained as possible.
We present some interior regularity criteria of the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations involving two components of the velocity. These results in particular imply that if the solution is singular at one point, then at least two components of the velocity have to blow up at the same point.
We prove interior $H^{2s-\varepsilon}$ regularity for weak solutions of linear elliptic integro-differential equations close to the fractional $s$-Laplacian. The result is obtained via intermediate estimates in Nikol'skii spaces, which are in turn carried out by means of an appropriate modification of the classical translation method by Nirenberg.
Let $2\le n\le 5$. We establish an apriori interior Hölder regularity of $C^2$-stable solutions to the semilinear equation $-Δu=f(u)$ in any domain of $R^n$ for any nonlinearity $f\in C^{0,1}(R) $.If $f $ is nondecreasing and convex in addition,we obtain an interior Hölder regularity, and hence the local boundedness, of $W^{1,2}(Ω)$-stable solutions by locally approximating them via $C^2(Ω)$-stable solutions. In particular, we do not require any lower bound on $f$.
We show Carleman estimates, observability inequalities and null controllability results for parabolic equations with non smooth coefficients degenerating at an interior point.
We consider Orlicz-growth generalization to evolutionary $p$-Laplacian and to the evolutionary symmetric $p$-Laplacian. We derive the spatial second-order Caccioppoli estimate for a local weak solution to these systems. The result is new even for the $p$-case.
We consider the three-dimensional incompressible free-boundary Euler equations in a bounded domain and with surface tension. Using Lagrangian coordinates, we establish a priori estimates for solutions with minimal regularity assumptions on the initial data.
We show that if v is an axially symmetric suitable weak solution to the Navier Stokes equations (in the sense of L. Caffarelli, R. Kohn & L. Nirenberg) such that the radial component of v has a higher regularity (i.e. satisfies weighted Serrin-Prodi type condition), then all components of v are regular.
We study the regularity of solutions of elliptic fractional systems of order 2s, $s \in (0, 1)$, where the right hand side f depends on a nonlocal gradient and has the same scaling properties as the nonlocal operator. Under some structural conditions on the system we prove interior Hölder estimates in the spirit of [1]. Our results are stable in s allowing us to recover the classic results for elliptic systems due to S. Hildebrandt and K. Widman [6] and M. Wiegner [9].

We consider non smooth general degenerate/singular parabolic equations in non divergence form with degeneracy and singularity occurring in the interior of the spatial domain, in presence of Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. In particular, we consider well posedness of the problem and then we prove Carleman estimates for the associated adjoint problem.
We consider the evolutionary symmetric $p$-Laplacian with safety $1$. By symmetric we mean that the full gradient of $p$-Laplacian is replaced by its symmetric part, which causes breakdown of the Uhlenbeck structure. We derive the interior regularity of time derivatives of its local weak solution. To circumvent the space-time growth mismatch, we devise a new local regularity technique of iterations in Nikolskii-Bochner spaces. It is interesting by itself, as it may be modified to provide new regularity results for the full-gradient $p$-Laplacian case with lower-order dependencies. Finally, hav…
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 establish some interior regularity criterions of suitable weak solutions for the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations, which allow the vertical part of the velocity to be large under the local scaling invariant norm. As an application, we improve Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin's criterion and Escauriza-Seregin-Šverák's criterion. We also show that if weak solution $u$ satisfies $$ \|u(\cdot,t)\|_{L^p}\leq C(-t)^{\frac {3-p}{2p}} $$ for some $3<p<\infty$, then the number of singular points is finite.
We consider the 2-D incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain and show that local weak solutions are exponentially integrable, uniformly in time, under minimal integrability conditions. This is a Serrin-type interior regularity result $$u \in L_{\rm loc}^{2+\varepsilon}(Ω_T) \implies {\rm regularity}$$ for weak solutions in the energy space $L_t^\infty L_x^2$ satisfying appropriate vorticity estimates. The argument is completely local in nature as the result follows from the structural properties of the equation alone, while completely avoiding all sorts of boundary conditions and rel…
We present new interior regularity criteria for suitable weak solutions of the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations: a suitable weak solution is regular near an interior point $z$ if either the scaled $L^{p,q}_{x,t}$-norm of the velocity with $3/p+2/q\leq 2$, $1\leq q\leq \infty$, or the $L^{p,q}_{x,t}$-norm of the vorticity with $3/p+2/q\leq 3$, $1 \leq q < \infty$, or the $L^{p,q}_{x,t}$-norm of the gradient of the vorticity with $3/p+2/q\leq 4$, $1 \leq q$, $1 \leq p$, is sufficiently small near $z$.
We derive optimal regularity, in both time and space, for solutions of the Cauchy problem related to a degenerate differential equation in a Banach space X. Our results exhibit a sort of prevalence for space regularity, in the sense that the higher is the order of regularity with respect to space, the lower is the corresponding order of regularity with respect to time.
In this paper, we establish interior $C^{1,α}$ estimates for solutions of the linearized Monge-Amp$\grave{e}$re equation $$\mathcal{L}_ϕu:=\mathrm{tr}[ΦD^2 u]=f,$$ where the density of the Monge-Amp$\grave{e}$re measure $g:=\mathrm{det}D^2ϕ$ satisfies a $\mathrm{VMO}$-type condition and $Φ:=(\mathrm{det}D^2ϕ)(D^2ϕ)^{-1}$ is the cofactor matrix of $D^2ϕ$.
We consider inhomogeneous $p$-Laplace type equations of the form $-\mathrm{div}\left(a(\nabla u)\right)=f$ in a possibly anisotropic setting. Under general assumptions on the source term $f$, we obtain quantitative Sobolev regularity results for the stress field $a(\nabla u)$ and weighted $L^2$ estimates for the Hessian of the solution. As far as we know, our results are new or refine the ones available in literature also when restricted to the Euclidean setting.
Singular degenerate differential operator equations are studied. The uniform separability of boundary value problems for degenerate elliptic equation and optimal regularity properties of Cauchy problem for degenerate parabolic equation are obtained. These problems have a numeros applications which occur in fluid mechanics, environmental engineering and atmospheric dispersion of pollutants.
We consider the Cauchy problem for a class of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equa- tion with forcing. By using the vanishing viscosity method we obtain generalized solutions. We prove some regularity results about this generalized solutions.
Sobolev-type regularity results are proved for solutions to a class of second order elliptic equations with a singular or degenerate weight, under non-homogeneous Neumann conditions. As an application a Pohozaev-type identity for weak solutions is derived.
We prove continuity on domains up to the boundary for n/2-polyharmonic maps into manifolds. Technically, we show how to adapt Helein's direct approach to the fractional setting. This extends a remark by the author that this is possible in the setting of Riviere's famous regularity result for critical points of conformally invariant variational functionals. Moreover, pointwise behavior for the involved three-commutators is established. Continuity up to the boundary is then obtained via an adaption of Hildebrandt and Kaul's technique to the non-local setting.
This paper deals with different characterizations of sets of nonlinear parabolic capacity zero, with respect to the parabolic p-Laplace equation. Specifically we prove that certain interior polar sets can be characterized by sets of zero nonlinear parabolic capacity. Furthermore we prove that zero capacity sets are removable for bounded supersolutions and that sets of zero capacity have a relation to a certain parabolic Hausdorff measure.
In this paper, we study the interior C^{1,1} regularity of viscosity solutions for a degenerate Monge-Ampère type equation \det[D^{2}u-A(x, u, Du)]=B(x, u, Du) when B \geq 0 and B^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\in C^{1,1}(\barΩ\times\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}^n). We prove that u\in C^{1,1}(Ω) under the A3 condition and A3w^+ condition respectively. In the former case, we construct a suitable auxiliary function to obtain uniform {\it a priori} estimates directly. In the latter case, the main argument is to establish the Pogorelov type estimates, which are interesting independently.
We show interior Hölder continuity for a class of quasi-linear degenerate reaction-diffusion equations. The diffusion coefficient in the equation has a porous medium type degeneracy and its primitive has a singularity. The reaction term is locally bounded except in zero. The class of equations we analyse is motivated by a model that describes the growth of biofilms. Our method is based on the original proof of interior Hölder continuity for the porous medium equation. We do not restrict ourselves to solutions that are limits in the weak topology of a sequence of approximate continuous solution…
We prove Harnack inequality and local regularity results for weak solutions of a quasilinear degenerate equation in divergence form under natural growth conditions. The degeneracy is given by a suitable power of a strong $A_\infty$ weight. Regularity results are achieved under minimal assumptions on the coefficients and, as an application, we prove $C^{1,α}$ local estimates for solutions of a degenerate equation in non divergence form.
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].
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 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 article, we deal with the global regularity of weak solutions to a class of problems involving the fractional $(p,q)$-Laplacian, denoted by $(-Δ)^{s_1}_{p}+(-Δ)^{s_2}_{q}$, for $s_2, s_1\in (0,1)$ and $1<p,q<\infty$. We establish completely new Hölder continuity results, up to the boundary, for the weak solutions to fractional $(p,q)$-problems involving singular as well as regular nonlinearities. Moreover, as applications to boundary estimates, we establish new Hopf type maximum principle and strong comparison principle in both situations.
In the present paper, we study sharp C^{1;α} regularity results with boundary Neumann condition for viscosity solutions for a class of degenerate fully non-linear elliptic equations with Neumann boundary conditions.
We obtain optimal boundary and global regularity estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic equations whose ellipticity degenerates at the critical points of a given solution. We show that any solution is $C^{1,α}$ on the boundary of the domain, for an optimal and explicit $α$ given only in terms of the regularity of the boundary datum and the elliptic degeneracy degree, no matter how possibly low is the interior regularity for that class of equations. We also obtain sharp global estimates. Our findings are new even for model equations, involving only a degenerate Laplacian;…
