We prove $C^{2,\alpha}$ regularity of sufficiently flat free boundaries, for the thin one-phase problem in which the free boundary occurs on a lower dimensional subspace. This problem appears also as a model of a one-phase free boundary…
We consider weak solutions of the adjoint equation for an elliptic operator in nondivergent form, and their asymptotic properties at an interior point. We assume that the coefficients a_{ij} are bounded, measurable, complex-valued functions…
This article is concerned with uniform $C^{1,\alpha}$ and $C^{1,1}$ estimates in periodic homogenization of fully nonlinear elliptic equations. The analysis is based on the compactness method, which involves linearization of the operator at…

In this article we study for the first time the regularity of the free boundary in the one-phase free boundary problem driven by a general nonlocal operator. Our main results establish that the free boundary is $C^{1,\alpha}$ near regular…
In this short note, we consider gradient estimates for positive solutions to the following nonlinear elliptic equation on a complete Riemannian manifold: $$\Delta u+cu^{\alpha}=0,$$ where $c, \alpha$ are two real constants and $c\neq 0$.
In this paper, we obtain $C^{1}$ and $C^{1,1}$ regularity of $L^{n}$-viscosity solutions for general semilinear elliptic equation in nondivergence form under some more weaker assumptions, which generalize the result for equations with…

In this paper we prove an asymptotic $C^{1,\gamma}$-estimate for value functions of stochastic processes related to uniformly elliptic dynamic programming principles. As an application, this allows us to pass to the limit with a discrete…
We study the boundary regularity of solutions of elliptic operators in divergence form with $C^{0,\alpha}$ coefficients or operators which are small perturbations of the Laplacian in non-smooth domains. We show that, as in the case of the…
We consider a nonlocal equation set in an unbounded domain with the epigraph property. We prove symmetry, monotonicity and rigidity results. In particular, we deal with halfspaces, coercive epigraphs and epigraphs that are flat at infinity.
We classify homogeneous degree $d\neq2$ solutions to fully nonlinear elliptic equations.
