In this article, under mild constraints on the sectional curvature, we exploit a divergence formula for symmetric endomorphisms to deduce a general Poincar\'e type inequality. We apply such inequality to higher-order mean curvature of…

We show that the Harnack inequality for a class of degenerate parabolic quasilinear PDE $$\p_t u=-X_i^* A_i(x,t,u,Xu)+ B(x,t,u,Xu),$$ associated to a system of Lipschitz continuous vector fields $X=(X_1,...,X_m)$ in in $\Om\times (0,T)$…

For non convex Hamiltonians, the viscosity solution and the more geometric minimax solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation do not coincide in general. They are nevertheless related: we show that iterating the minimax procedure during…

We propose a systematic approach based on trajectories to prove a Poincar\'e inequality for weak non-negative sub-solutions to hypoelliptic equations with an arbitrary number of H\"ormander commutators, both in the local and in the…

We give new short proofs of Allard's regularity theorem for varifolds with bounded first variation and Brakke's regularity theorem for integral Brakke flows with bounded forcing. They are based on a decay of flatness, following from…

We establish interior Lipschitz regularity for continuous viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear, conformally invariant, degenerate elliptic equations. As a by-product of our method, we also prove a weak form of the strong comparison…

We propose a theory of non-differentiable solutions which applies to fully nonlinear PDE systems and extends the theory of viscosity solutions of Crandall-Ishii-Lions to the vectorial case. Our key ingredient is the discovery of a notion of…

We obtain new oscillation and gradient bounds for the viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations where the Hamiltonian is a sum of a sublinear and a superlinear part in the sense of Barles and Souganidis (2001). We…

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…

In the theory of viscosity solutions for second-order, degenerate elliptic PDEs, the Ishii-Lions method is a commonly used strategy, and the theorem of sums is the main analytical tool. As noted by Porretta and Priola, uniformly elliptic…
