We prove that minimizers of the $L^{d}$-norm of the Hessian in the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^d$ are locally of class $C^{1,\alpha}$. Our findings extend previous results on Hessian-dependent functionals to the borderline case and resonate…
We study the regularity of solutions of elliptic second order boundary value problems on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb R^3$. The coefficients are not necessarily continuous and the boundary conditions may be mixed, i.e. Dirichlet on…
