Suppose that ${\cal L}$ is a divergence form differential operator of the form ${\cal L}f:=(1/2) e^{U}\nabla_x\cdot\big[e^{-U}(I+H)\nabla_x f\big]$, where $U$ is scalar valued, $I$ identity matrix and $H$ an anti-symmetric matrix valued…

We study gradient estimates of $q$-harmonic functions $u$ of the fractional Schr{\"o}dinger operator $\Delta^{\alpha/2} + q$, $\alpha \in (0,1]$ in bounded domains $D \subset \R^d$. For nonnegative $u$ we show that if $q$ is H{\"o}lder…

A regular operator T on a Hilbert C^*-module is defined just like a closed operator on a Hilbert space, with the extra condition that the range of (I+T^*T) is dense. Semiregular operators are a slightly larger class of operators that may…

We consider critical points of the geometric obstacle problem on vectorial maps $u: \mathbb{B}^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^N$ \[ \int_{\mathbb{B}^2} |\nabla u|^2 \quad \mbox{subject to $u \in \mathbb{R}^N \backslash…

Assume that $Au=f,\quad (1)$ is a solvable linear equation in a Hilbert space $H$, $A$ is a linear, closed, densely defined, unbounded operator in $H$, which is not boundedly invertible, so problem (1) is ill-posed. It is proved that the…

We consider the equation $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u) \geq 0$ in the sense of distribution in $\Omega'=\Omega\setminus \{0\} $ where $u$ and $ -\Delta u\geq 0.$ Then it is known that $u$ solves $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u)+\alpha \delta_0-\beta \Delta…

We consider the equation - \Delta u + b \nabla u = 0. The dependence of the local regularity of a solution on the properties of the coefficient b is investigated.

A semiregular operator on a Hilbert C^*-module, or equivalently, on the C^*-algebra of `compact' operators on it, is a closable densely defined operator whose adjoint is also densely defined. It is shown that for operators on extensions of…

Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $H$ such that \[ \alpha[T^*,T]:=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n T^{*n}T^n\ge 0. \] where $\alpha(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \alpha_n t^n$ is a suitable analytic function in the unit disc…

We study an elliptic differential operator A on a manifold with conic points. Assuming A to be defined on the smooth functions supported away from the singularities, we first address the question of possible closed extensions of A to L^p…

Homogenization for non-local operators in periodic environments has been studied intensively. So far, these works are mainly devoted to the qualitative results, that is, to determine explicitly the operators in the limit. To the best of…

Let $L$ be a sectorial operator of type $\alpha$ ($0 \leq \alpha < \pi/2$) on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ with the kernels of $\{e^{-tL}\}_{t>0}$ satisfying certain size and regularity conditions. Define $$ S_{q,L}(f)(x) =…

Let $f\in C^1(\mathbb{R})$. We study stable solutions $u$ of the mean curvature equation \[ \operatorname{div}\left( \frac{\nabla u}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla u|^2}} \right) = -f(u) \qquad \text{in}\ \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n. \] In the local…

For a linear nonvariational operator structured on smooth H\"ormander's vector fields, with H\"older continuous coefficients, we prove a regularity result in the spaces of H\"older functions. We deduce an analogous regularity result for…

Let $\sigma(x,\xi) $ be a sufficiently regular function defined on $R^d \times R^d.$ The pseudo-differential operator with symbol $\sigma$ is defined on the Schwartz class by the formula: \[f\to\sigma f(x)=\int_{R^d} \sigma(x,\xi)…

We introduce the concept of $C^{m,\alpha}$-nonlocal operators, extending the notion of second order elliptic operator in divergence form with $C^{m,\alpha}$-coefficients. We then derive the nonlocal analogue of the key existing results for…

Consider the following Kolmogorov type hypoelliptic operator $$ \mathscr L_t:=\mbox{$\sum_{j=2}^n$}x_j\cdot\nabla_{x_{j-1}}+{\rm Tr} (a_t \cdot\nabla^2_{x_n}), $$ where $n\geq 2$, $x=(x_1,\cdots,x_n)\in(\mathbb R^d)^n =\mathbb R^{nd}$ and…

In $\mathbb R^d$, $d \geq 3$, consider the divergence and the non-divergence form operators \begin{equation} \tag{$i$} -\Delta - \nabla \cdot (a-I) \cdot \nabla + b \cdot \nabla, \end{equation} \begin{equation} \tag{$ii$} - \Delta - (a-I)…

We consider a class of fully nonlinear integro-differential operators where the nonlocal integral has two components: the non-degenerate one corresponds to the $\alpha$-stable operator and the second one (possibly degenerate) corresponds to…

We show that for an $L^2$ drift $b$ in two dimensions, if the Hardy norm of $\text{div }b$ is small, then the weak solutions to $\Delta u+b\cdot\nabla u=0$ have the same optimal H\"older regularity as in the case of divergence-free drift,…
