Hölder stability for Serrin’s overdetermined problem
2015
In a bounded domain \(\varOmega \), we consider a positive solution of the problem \(\Delta u+f(u)=0\) in \(\varOmega \), \(u=0\) on \(\partial \varOmega \), where \(f:\mathbb {R}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) is a locally Lipschitz continuous function. Under sufficient conditions on \(\varOmega \) (for instance, if \(\varOmega \) is convex), we show that \(\partial \varOmega \) is contained in a spherical annulus of radii \(r_i 0\) and \(\tau \in (0,1]\). Here, \([u_\nu ]_{\partial \varOmega }\) is the Lipschitz seminorm on \(\partial \varOmega \) of the normal derivative of u. This result improves to Holder stability the logarithmic estimate obtained in Aftalion et al. (Adv Differ Equ 4:907–93…
A priori bounds and multiplicity of solutions for an indefinite elliptic problem with critical growth in the gradient
2019
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a smooth bounded domain. We consider a boundary value problem of the form $$-\Delta u = c_{\lambda}(x) u + \mu(x) |\nabla u|^2 + h(x), \quad u \in H^1_0(\Omega)\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega)$$ where $c_{\lambda}$ depends on a parameter $\lambda \in \mathbb R$, the coefficients $c_{\lambda}$ and $h$ belong to $L^q(\Omega)$ with $q>N/2$ and $\mu \in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$. Under suitable assumptions, but without imposing a sign condition on any of these coefficients, we obtain an a priori upper bound on the solutions. Our proof relies on a new boundary weak Harnack inequality. This inequality, which is of independent interest, is established in the gener…
Generalized Harnack inequality for semilinear elliptic equations
2015
Abstract This paper is concerned with semilinear equations in divergence form div ( A ( x ) D u ) = f ( u ) , where f : R → [ 0 , ∞ ) is nondecreasing. We introduce a sharp Harnack type inequality for nonnegative solutions which is a quantified version of the condition for strong maximum principle found by Vazquez and Pucci–Serrin in [30] , [24] and is closely related to the classical Keller–Osserman condition [15] , [22] for the existence of entire solutions.
A tour of the theory of absolutely minimizing functions

A detailed analysis of the class of absolutely minimizing functions in Euclidean spaces and the relationship to the infinity Laplace equation
De Giorgi–Nash–Moser Theory
2015
We consider the second-order, linear, elliptic equations with divergence structure $$\mathrm{div} (\mathbb{A}(x)\nabla u(x))\;=\;\sum\limits^n_{i,j=1}\;\partial_{x_{i}}(a_{ij}(x)\partial_{x_{j}}u(x))\;=\;0.$$
Harnack's inequality for p-harmonic functions via stochastic games
2013
We give a proof of asymptotic Lipschitz continuity of p-harmonious functions, that are tug-of-war game analogies of ordinary p-harmonic functions. This result is used to obtain a new proof of Lipsc...
Local regularity estimates for general discrete dynamic programming equations
2022
We obtain an analytic proof for asymptotic H\"older estimate and Harnack's inequality for solutions to a discrete dynamic programming equation. The results also generalize to functions satisfying Pucci-type inequalities for discrete extremal operators. Thus the results cover a quite general class of equations.
The boundary Harnack inequality for infinity harmonic functions in Lipschitz domains satisfying the interior ball condition
2008
Abstract In this note, we give a short proof for the boundary Harnack inequality for infinity harmonic functions in a Lipschitz domain satisfying the interior ball condition. Our argument relies on the use of quasiminima and the notion of comparison with cones.
A Carleson type inequality for fully nonlinear elliptic equations with non-Lipschitz drift term
2017
This paper concerns the boundary behavior of solutions of certain fully nonlinear equations with a general drift term. We elaborate on the non-homogeneous generalized Harnack inequality proved by the second author in (Julin, ARMA -15), to prove a generalized Carleson estimate. We also prove boundary H\"older continuity and a boundary Harnack type inequality.
Removable sets for continuous solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations
2001
We show that sets of n − p + α ( p − 1 ) n-p+\alpha (p-1) Hausdorff measure zero are removable for α \alpha -Hölder continuous solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations similar to the p p -Laplacian. The result is optimal. We also treat larger sets in terms of a growth condition. In particular, our results apply to quasiregular mappings.
