We consider fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations with quadratic growth in the gradient, such as $$ -F(x,u,Du,D^2u) =\lambda c(x)u+\langle M(x)D u, D u \rangle +h(x) $$ in a bounded domain with a Dirichlet boundary condition, here…

We study regularity properties for solutions to the nakedly degenerate elliptic equation $a_{ij}\partial_{ij}u =0$, where the coefficients satisfy $I \ge a_{ij}(x) \ge \lambda(x) I$ and the only assumption is that $\lambda^{-1} \in L^p$. We…
