For an elliptic, semilinear differential operator of the form $S(u) = A : D^2 u + b(x, u , Du)$, consider the functional $E_\infty(u) = \mathop{\mathrm{ess \, sup}}_\Omega |S(u)|$. We study minimisers of $E_\infty$ for prescribed boundary…

In [1], an operator was introduced which acts parallel to the Riemann-Liouville differintegral on a transformation of the space of real analytic functions and commutes with itself. This paper aims to extend the technique - and its defining…
