We prove a global version of the classical result that $p$-harmonic functions belong to $W^{2,2}_{loc}$ for $1<p<3+\frac{2}{n-2}$. The proof relies on Cordes' matrix inequalities [7] and techniques from the work of Cianchi and Maz'ya [5,6].

A $W^{1,p}$-metric on an $n$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold naturally induces a distance function, provided $p$ is sufficiently close to $n$. If a sequence of metrics $g_k$ converges in $W^{1,p}$ to a limit metric $g$, then the…
