Abstract

We present a proof of strict gg-convexity in 2D for solutions of generated Jacobian equations with a gg-Monge-Amp\`ere measure bounded away from 0. Subsequently this implies C1C^1 differentiability in the case of a gg-Monge-Amp\`ere measure bounded from above. Our proof follows one given by Trudinger and Wang in the Monge-Amp\`ere case. Thus, like theirs, our argument is local and yields a quantitative estimate on the gg-convexity. As a result our differentiability result is new even in the optimal transport case: we weaken previously required domain convexity conditions. Moreover in the optimal transport case and the Monge-Amp\`ere case our key assumptions, namely A3w and domain convexity, are necessary.
