In this work, we study the relaxation of a degenerate functional with linear growth, depending on a weight $w$ that does not exhibit doubling or Muckenhoupt-type conditions. In order to obtain an explicit representation of the relaxed…
In the present paper, a class of fully non-linear elliptic equations are considered, which are degenerate as the gradient becomes small. H\"older estimates obtained by the first author (2011) are combined with new Lipschitz estimates…
