For a second-order elliptic equation of nondivergence form in the plane, we investigate conditions on the coefficients which imply that all strong solutions have first-order derivatives that are Lipschitz continuous or differentiable at a…
In this note, we prove that if a subharmonic function $\Delta u\ge 0$ has pure second derivatives $\partial_{ii} u$ that are signed measures, then their negative part $(\partial_{ii} u)_-$ belongs to $L^1$ (in particular, it is not…
It is well known that derivatives of solutions to elliptic boundary value problems may become unbounded near the corner of a domain with a conical singularity, even if the data are smooth. When the corner domain is approximated by more…
This paper is concerned with H\"older regularity of viscosity solutions of second-order, fully non-linear elliptic integro-differential equations. Our results rely on two key ingredients: first we assume that, at each point of the domain,…
