We study convex solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere obstacle problem \[ \operatorname{det} D^2 v=g v^q\chi_{\{v>0\}}, \quad v \geq 0, \] where $q \in [0,n)$ is a constant and $g$ is a bounded positive function. This problem emerges from the…

In this paper, we consider the Dirichlet problem of a complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation on a ball in $\mathbb C^n$. With $\mathcal C^{1,\alpha}$ (resp. $\mathcal C^{0,\alpha}$) data, we prove an interior $\mathcal C^{1,\alpha}$ (resp.…

We prove the existence of C^{\infty} local solutions to a class of mixed type Monge-Ampere equations in the plane. More precisely, the equation changes type to finite order across two smooth curves intersecting transversely at a point.…

Let X be a compact complex manifold equipped with a smooth (but not necessarily positive) closed form theta of one-one type. By a well-known envelope construction this data determines a canonical theta-psh function u which is not two times…

In this paper, we consider a class of Hessian type equations which include the $(n-1)$ Monge-Amp\`{e}re equation on Riemannian manifolds. The \emph{a priori} $C^2$ estimates and the existence of solutions are established.

We prove that solutions to the Monge-Ampere inequality $$\det D^2u \geq 1$$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are strictly convex away from a singular set of Hausdorff $n-1$ dimensional measure zero. Furthermore, we show this is optimal by constructing…

It is shown that geodesics in the space of K\"ahler potentials can be uniformly approximated by geodesics in the spaces of Bergman metrics. Two important tools in the proof are the Tian-Yau-Zelditch approximation theorem for K\"ahler…
