Abstract

In this paper, the Dirichlet problem for the Monge-Ampére equation det(u ij)=F(x,u,Δu) on a convex bounded domain ΩσR″ is considered. The author establishes a newC o-estimate and gives some new existence results. He also presents a new proof for theC 3,α-estimates of solutions, which not only weakens the smooth assumptions forF but also applies to more general nonlinear elliptic systems.
