It is shown that integral operators of the fully nonlinear type $K(x)(t)=\int_\Omega k(t,s,x(t),x(s))\,ds$ exhibit similar degeneracy phenomena in a large class of spaces as superposition operators $F(x)(t)=f(t,x(t))$. In particular, $K$ is…
This paper extends a class of degenerate elliptic operators for which hypoellipticity requires more than a logarithmic gain of derivatives of a solution in every direction. Work of Hoshiro and Morimoto in late 80s characterized a necessity…
We consider the Kato problem and extensions for degenerate elliptic operators of arbitrary order $2m$ ($m\geq 1$), whose coefficients are measurable, complex-valued and satisfy the G$\mathring{a}$rding inequality with respect to a…

Examples are given of degenerate elliptic operators on smooth, compact manifolds that are not globally regular in $C^\infty$. These operators degenerate only in a rather mild fashion. Certain weak regularity results are proved, and an…

In this paper we are interested in the study of a two-phase problem equipped with the $\Phi$-Laplacian operator $$ \Delta_\Phi u \coloneqq \mbox{div} \left(\phi(|\nabla u|)\dfrac{\nabla u}{|\nabla u|}\right), $$ where $\Phi(s)=e^{s^2}-1$…
We analyze degenerate, second-order, elliptic operators $H$ in divergence form on $L_2({\bf R}^{n}\times{\bf R}^{m})$. We assume the coefficients are real symmetric and $a_1H_\delta\geq H\geq a_2H_\delta$ for some $a_1,a_2>0$ where \[…

We analyze degenerate, second-order, elliptic operators $H$ in divergence form on $L_2(\Ri^{n}\times\Ri^{m})$. We assume the coefficients are real symmetric and $a_1H_\delta\geq H\geq a_2H_\delta$ for some $a_1,a_2>0$ where \[…
In this paper we consider equations $-| \nabla u |^\alpha F ( D^2 u) = |u|^{p-1} u $ in an annulus. $F$ is Fully Nonlinear Elliptic, $\alpha$ is some real $> -1$ and $p > 1+ \alpha$. The solutions are intended in the sense of the definition…
We study fully nonlinear elliptic equations such as \[ F(D^2u) = u^p, \quad p>1, \] in $\R^n$ or in exterior domains, where $F$ is any uniformly elliptic, positively homogeneous operator. We show that there exists a critical exponent,…

This paper deals with the following nonlinear equations \[ \mathcal{M}_{\lambda,\Lambda}^\pm(D^2 u)+g(u)=0 \qquad \hbox{ in }\mathbb{R}^N, \] where $\mathcal{M}_{\lambda,\Lambda}^\pm$ are the Pucci's extremal operators, for $N \ge 1$ and…
In this study, we address the eigenvalue problem given by: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Div (w\nabla u_i)=\la_iu_i &\text{in } \Om\subset \mathbb{R}^n,\\ u_i=0 &\text{on } \pt \Om, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $w > 0$ within $\Om$…
Let $u$ denote a solution to a rotationally invariant Hessian equation $F(D^2u)=0$ on a bounded simply connected domain $\Omega\subset R^2$, with constant Dirichlet and Neumann data on $\partial \Omega$. In this paper we prove that if $u$…
We study the Kato problem for degenerate divergence form operators. This was begun by Cruz-Uribe and Rios who proved that given an operator $L_w=-w^{-1}{\rm div}(A\nabla)$, where $w\in A_2$ and $A$ is a $w$-degenerate elliptic measure (i.e,…
It is shown that the theory of real symmetric second-order elliptic operators in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ can be formulated in terms of a regular strongly local Dirichlet form irregardless of the order of degeneracy. The behaviour of the…
We are interested in the shape of the homogenized operator $\overline F(Q)$ for PDEs which have the structure of a nonlinear Pucci operator. A typical operator is $H^{a_1,a_2}(Q,x) = a_1(x) \lambda_{\min}(Q) + a_2(x)\lambda_{\max}(Q)$.…
