Abstract
We construct homogeneous solutions with non-Lipschitz Hessian for finite, constant-coefficient Bellman equations. First, for every , we find two uniformly elliptic matrices and a nonzero -homogeneous solution of Second, in we construct three matrices satisfying for which the corresponding Bellman equation admits a homogeneous solution with a non-Lipschitz Hessian. In particular, solutions to convex fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations are not in , and not even in for small.
