We show that any weak solution to elliptic equations in divergence form is continuously differentiable provided that the modulus of continuity of coefficients in the $L^1$-mean sense satisfies the Dini condition. This in particular answers…
Inspired by Frehse's [1] 1973 work, we show that his elliptic system $\Delta u = F(u, \nabla u)$ in the plane has bounded weak solutions $u$ with arbitrarily prescribed singular sets.
In this paper, we characterize all the distributions $F \in \mathcal{D}'(U)$ such that there exists a continuous weak solution $v \in C(U,\mathbb{C}^{n})$ (with $U \subset \Omega$) to the divergence-type equation…
We present a continuous finite element method for some examples of fully nonlinear elliptic equation. A key tool is the discretisation proposed in Lakkis & Pryer (2011, SISC) allowing us to work directly on the strong form of a linear PDE.…
The representation theorem for odd or even involutive FLe-chains by bunches of layer groups, as discussed in [10], is redefined to demonstrate a more straightforward constructional relationship between odd or even involutive FLe-chains and…
The associative algebra of symplectic reflections $\mathcal H:= H_{1,\nu_1, \nu_2}(I_2(2m))$ based on the group generated by the root system $I_2(2m)$ has two parameters, $\nu_1$ and $\nu_2$. For every value of these parameters, the algebra…
We provide sharp bounds for the isoperimetric constants of infinite plane graphs (tessellations) with bounded vertex and face degrees. For example, if $G$ is a plane graph satisfying the inequalities $p_1 \leq \mbox{deg}\ v \leq p_2$ for $v…
We prove the existence of globally H\"{o}lder continuous solutions to certain elliptic partial differential equations with lower-order terms. Our result is applicable to coefficients controlled by a negative power of the distance from the…
Dealing with variational formulations of second order elliptic problems with discontinuous coefficients, we recall a single field minimization problem of an extended functional presented by Bevilacqua et al (1974), which we associate with…
We demonstrate a measure theoretical approach to the local regularity of weak supersolutions to elliptic and parabolic equations in divergence form. In the first part, we show that weak supersolutions become lower semicontinuous after…
The infinite-dimensional Iwahori--Hecke algebras $\mathcal{H}_\infty(q)$ are direct limits of the usual finite-dimensional Iwahori--Hecke algebras. They arise in a natural way as convolution algebras of bi-invariant functions on groups…
We establish sufficient conditions for existence of curves minimizing length as measured with respect to a degenerate metric on the plane while enclosing a specified amount of Euclidean area. Non-existence of minimizers can occur and…
The state-of-the art proof of a global inf-sup condition on mixed finite element schemes does not allow for an analysis of truly indefinite, second-order linear elliptic PDEs. This paper, therefore, first analyses a nonconforming finite…
Let $L$ be a second-order elliptic operator with analytic coefficients defined in $B_1\subseteq\mathbb R^n$. We construct explicitly and canonically a fundamental solution for the operator, i.e., a function $u:B_{r_0}\to\mathbb R$ such that…
Motivated by applications to stochastic differential equations, an extension of H\"{o}rmander's hypoellipticity theorem is proved for second-order degenerate elliptic operators with non-smooth coefficients. The main results are established…
We show that the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg (CKN) inequality holds with a remainder term that is quartic in the distance to the set of optimizers for the full parameter range of the Felli-Schneider (FS) curve. The fourth power is best…
We consider local weak solutions to PDEs of the type \[ -\,\mathrm{div}\left((\vert Du\vert-\lambda)_{+}^{p-1}\frac{Du}{\vert Du\vert}\right)=f\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\text{in}\,\,\Omega, \] where $1<p<\infty$, $\Omega$ is an open subset of…
