We consider vector-valued solutions to a linear transmission problem, and we prove that Lipschitz-regularity on one phase is transmitted to the next phase. More exactly, given a solution $u:B_1\subset \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^m$ to the…

We show that for an $L^2$ drift $b$ in two dimensions, if the Hardy norm of $\text{div }b$ is small, then the weak solutions to $\Delta u+b\cdot\nabla u=0$ have the same optimal H\"older regularity as in the case of divergence-free drift,…

We are concerned with singular elliptic equations of the form $-\Delta u= p(x)(g(u)+ f(u)+|\nabla u|^a)$ in $\RR^N$ ($N\geq 3$), where $p$ is a positive weight and $0< a <1$. Under the hypothesis that $f$ is a nondecreasing function with…
