Abstract

In our previous paper on this topic, we introduced the notion of k-Hessian measure associated with a continuous k-convex function in a domain \Om in Euclidean n-space, k=1,...,n, and proved a weak continuity result with respect to local uniform convergence. In this paper, we consider k-convex functions, not necessarily continuous, and prove the weak continuity of the associated k-Hessian measure with respect to convergence in measure. The proof depends upon local integral estimates for the gradients of k-convex functions.
