We want to prove a Harnack type inequality for solutions of strongly degenerate parabolic, or elliptic-parabolic, equations. To do that, we first define a De Giorgi class of order $p = 2$ that contains the solutions of evolution equations…
The purpose of this paper is to prove local upper and lower bounds for weak solutions of semilinear elliptic equations of the form $-\Delta u= c u^p$, with $0<p<p_s=(d+2)/(d-2)$, defined on bounded domains of $\RR^d$, $d\ge 3$, without…

We consider the singular boundary-value problem \Delta u = f(u) in D; u|_dD= phi, where 1. D is a bounded C^2-domain of R^d, d >= 3 2. f: (0,1) -> (0,1) is a locally H\"older continuous function such that f(u) -> 1 as u -> 0 at the rate…
In this paper we prove Holder regularity of the gradient for solutions of Dirichlet problem associate to degenerate elliptic equations, extending the recent result of Imbert and Silvestre. Indeed we obtain regularity up to the boundary and…
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…

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…
It is known that solutions to second order uniformly elliptic and parabolic equations, either in divergence or nondivergence (general) form, are H\"{o}lder continuous and satisfy the interior Harnack inequality. We show that even in the…
