In this paper, we establish boundary $W^{2,\delta}$ estimates for $u\in S(\lambda,\Lambda,f)$ on $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains with $f\in L^p$ as $n<p<\infty$ and $C^{1,\alpha}$ boundary values. Instead of straightening out the boundary, our main…

In a previous paper we developed a new method to obtain symmetrization inequalities of Sobolev type for functions in $W_{0}^{1,1}(\Omega)$. In this paper we extend our method to Sobolev functions that do not vanish at the boundary.

For the system of semilinear elliptic equations \[ \Delta V_i = V_i \sum_{j \neq i} V_j^2, \qquad V_i > 0 \qquad \text{in $\mathbb{R}^N$} \] we devise a new method to construct entire solutions. The method extends the existence results…

We study the following nonlinear and nonlocal elliptic equation in~$\R^n$ $$ (-\Delta)^s u = \epsilon\,h\,u^q + u^p \ {\mbox{ in }}\R^n, $$ where~$s\in(0,1)$, $n>2s$, $\epsilon>0$ is a small parameter, $p=\frac{n+2s}{n-2s}$, $q\in(0,1)$,…
