Abstract

In this paper, we show that W1,pW^{1,p} (1p<)(1\leq p<\infty) weak solutions to divergence form elliptic systems are Lipschitz and piecewise C1C^{1} provided that the leading coefficients and data are of piecewise Dini mean oscillation, the lower order coefficients are bounded, and interfacial boundaries are C1,DiniC^{1,\text{Dini}}. This extends a result of Li and Nirenberg (\textit{Comm. Pure Appl. Math.} \textbf{56} (2003), 892-925). Moreover, under a stronger assumption on the piecewise L1L^{1}-mean oscillation of the leading coefficients, we derive a global weak type-(1,1) estimate with respect to A1A_{1} Muckenhoupt weights for the elliptic systems without lower order terms.
