Regularity estimates for fully non linear elliptic equations which are asymptotically convex

  • Chapter
Contributions to Nonlinear Elliptic Equations and Systems

Abstract

In this paper we deliver improved C 1, α regularity estimates for solutions to fully nonlinear equations F(D 2 u) = 0, based on asymptotic properties inherited from its recession function \(F^{\star }(M):=\lim \limits _{\mu \rightarrow 0}\mu F(\mu ^{-1}M)\).
