Abstract

We study a class of degenerate parabolic and elliptic equations in divergence form in the upper half space {xd>0}\{x_d>0\}. The leading coefficients are of the form xd2aijx_d^2a_{ij}, where aija_{ij} are bounded, uniformly elliptic, and measurable in (t,xd)(t,x_d) except adda_{dd}, which is measurable in tt or xdx_d. Additionally, they have small bounded mean oscillations in the other spatial variables. We obtain the well-posedness and regularity of solutions in weighted mixed-norm Sobolev spaces.
