We prove that, given a $C^2$ Riemannian metric $g$ on the $2$-dimensional disk $D_2$, any short $C^1$ immersion of $(D_2,g)$ into $\mathbb R^3$ can be uniformly approximated with $C^{1,\alpha}$ isometric immersions for any $\alpha <…

We show that any isometric immersion of a flat plane domain into $\mathbb R^3$ is developable provided it enjoys the little H\"older regulairty $c^{1,2/3}$. In particular, isometric immersions of local $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity with $\alpha…

We study solutions of the first order partial differential inclusions of the form $\nabla u\in K$, where $u:\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m$ and $K$ is a set of $m\times n$ real matrices, and derive a companion version to the…

In this paper, we study flexibility of weak solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere system (MA) via convex integration. This new system of Pdes is an extension of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation in $d=2$ dimensions, naturally arising from the…

We study isometric embeddings of $C^2$ Riemannian manifolds in the Euclidean space and we establish that the H\"older space $C^{1,\frac{1}{2}}$ is critical in a suitable sense: in particular we prove that for $\alpha > \frac{1}{2}$ the…

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…

For any $\alpha $ small, we construct infinitely many $C^{1,\alpha}$ very weak solutions to the 2-Hessian equation with prescribed boundary value. The proof relies on the convex integration method and cut-off technique.

A classical result by Poznyak asserts that any smooth $2$-dimensional Riemannian metric $g$, posed on the closure of a simply connected domain $\omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, has a smooth isometric immersion into $\mathbb{R}^4$. Using…

We develop an integral approach to obtain interior a priori $C^{1,1}$ estimates for convex solutions of prescribing scalar curvature equations $\sigma_2(\kappa) = f(x)$ as well as the Hessian equations $\sigma_2(D^2u) = f(x)$. This new…

Inspired by a parabolic system of Li-Yuan-Zhang and the continuity equation of La Nave-Tian, we study a system of elliptic equations for a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a closed $(1, 1)$-form $\alpha$. Assuming a uniform estimate for…

We prove the $C^{1}$ regularity and developability of $W^{2,p}$ isometric immersions of $n$-dimensional flat domains into ${\mathbb R}^{n+k}$ where $p\ge \min\{2k, n\}$. Another parallel consequence of our methods is a similar regularity…

We consider isometric immersions of complete connected Riemannian manifolds into space forms of nonzero constant curvature. We prove that if such an immersion is compact and has semi-definite second fundamental form, then it is an embedding…
