In this paper, we prove that any $W^{2,1}$ strong solution to second-order non-divergence form elliptic equations is locally $W^{2,\infty}$ and piecewise $C^{2}$ when the leading coefficients and data are of piecewise Dini mean oscillation…
For $N\geq 3$, by the seminal paper of Brezis and V\'eron (Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 75(1):1--6, 1980/81), no positive solutions of $-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in $\mathbb R^N\setminus \{0\}$ exist if $q\geq N/(N-2)$; for $1<q<N/(N-2)$ the existence…
We establish two global subellipticity properties of positive symmetric second-order partial differential operators on $L_2(\Ri^d)$. First, if $m \in \Ni$ then we consider operators $H_0$ with coefficients in $W^{m+1,\infty}(\Ri^d)$ and…

In this manuscript, we derive Schauder estimates for viscosity solutions to non-convex fully nonlinear second-order parabolic equations \[ \partial_t u - F(x, t,D^2u) = f (x, t) \quad \text{in} \quad \mathrm{Q}_1 = B_1 \times (-1, 0], \]…
We give a global bilateral estimate on the maximal solution $\bar u_F$ of $ \prt_tu-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in $\BBR^N\times (0,\infty)$, $q>1$, $N\geq 1$, which vanishes at $t=0 $ on the complement of a closed subset $F\subset \BBR^N$. This…
We consider the fourth order problem $\Delta^{2}u=\lambda f(u)$ on a general bounded domain $\Omega$ in $R^{n}$ with the Navier boundary condition $u=\Delta u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Here, $\lambda$ is a positive parameter and $…
We prove a Liouville-type theorem that is one-dimensional symmetry and classification results for non-negative $L^q$-viscosity solutions of the equation \begin{equation*} -\mathcal{M}_{\lambda, \Lambda}^{\pm}(D^2u)\pm |Du|^p=0, x\in…
In this paper we obtain an inequality on the unit disc $B$ in the plane, which improves the classical Moser-Trudinger inequality and the classical Hardy inequality at the same time. Namely, there exists a constant $C_0>0$ such that \[…
Fix $\lambda>0$. Consider the Bessel operator $\Delta_\lambda:=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}-\frac{2\lambda}{x}\frac d{dx}$ on $\mathbb{R}_+:=(0,\infty)$ and the harmonic conjugacy introduced by Muckenhoupt and Stein. We provide the two-weight…
