Admissible solutions to augmented nonsymmetric $k$-Hessian type equations II. A priori estimates and the Dirichlet problem
Using the established $d$-concavity of the $k$-Hessian type functions $F_k(R)=\log(S_k(R)),$ whose variables are nonsymmetric matrices, we prove $ C^{2, α}(\overlineΩ) $ estimates for strictly $(δ, \widetildeγ_k) $-admissible solutions to the Dirichlet problem without the well-known regularity condition. A necessary condition for the existence of strictly $δ$-admissible solutions to the equations is given. By the method of continuity, we provide some sufficient conditions for the unique solvability in the class of strictly $(δ,\widetildeγ_k)$-admissible solutions to the Dirichlet problem, provided that those skew-symmetric matrices in the equations are sufficiently small in some sense.
