Oblique boundary value problems for augmented Hessian equations III

In bounded domains, without any geometric conditions, we study the existence and uniqueness of globally Lipschitz and interior strong C^{1,1}, (and classical C^2), solutions of general semilinear oblique boundary value problems for degenerate, (and non-degenerate), augmented Hessian equations, with strictly regular associated matrix functions. By establishing local second derivative estimates at the boundary and proving viscosity comparison principles, we show that the solution is correspondingly smooth near boundary points where the appropriate uniform convexity is satisfied.

Interior C^{1,1} regularity of solutions to degenerate Monge-Ampère type equations

In this paper, we study the interior C^{1,1} regularity of viscosity solutions for a degenerate Monge-Ampère type equation \det[D^{2}u-A(x, u, Du)]=B(x, u, Du) when B \geq 0 and B^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\in C^{1,1}(\barΩ\times\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}^n). We prove that u\in C^{1,1}(Ω) under the A3 condition and A3w^+ condition respectively. In the former case, we construct a suitable auxiliary function to obtain uniform {\it a priori} estimates directly. In the latter case, the main argument is to establish the Pogorelov type estimates, which are interesting independently.

On the second boundary value problem for Monge-Ampere type equations and geometric optics

In this paper, we prove the existence of classical solutions to second boundary value prob- lems for generated prescribed Jacobian equations, as recently developed by the second author, thereby obtaining extensions of classical solvability of optimal transportation problems to problems arising in near field geometric optics. Our results depend in particular on a priori second derivative estimates recently established by the authors under weak co-dimension one convexity hypotheses on the associated matrix functions with respect to the gradient variables, (A3w). We also avoid domain deformations by using the convexity theory of generating functions to construct unique initial solutions for our homotopy family, thereby enabling application of the degree theory for nonlinear oblique boundary value problems.

Oblique boundary value problems for augmented Hessian equations I

In this paper, we study global regularity for oblique boundary value problems of augmented Hessian equations for a class of general operators. By assuming a natural convexity condition of the domain together with appropriate convexity conditions on the matrix function in the augmented Hessian, we develop a global theory for classical elliptic solutions by establishing global a priori derivative estimates up to second order. Besides the known applications for Monge-Amp`ere type operators in optimal transportation and geometric optics, the general theory here embraces prescribed mean curvature problems in conformal geometry as well as oblique boundary value problems for augmented k-Hessian, Hessian quotient equations and certain degenerate equations.

Oblique boundary value problems for augmneted Hessian equations II

In this paper, we continue our investigations into the global theory of oblique boundary value problems for augmented Hessian equations. We construct a global barrier function in terms of an admissible function in a uniform way when the matrix function in the augmented Hessian is only assumed regular. This enables us to derive global second derivative estimates in terms of boundary estimates which are then obtained by strengthening the concavity or monotonicity conditions in our previous work on the strictly regular case. Finally we give some applications to existence theorems which embrace standard Hessian equations as special cases.

On the Neumann problem for Monge-Ampère type equations

In this paper, we study the global regularity for regular Monge-Ampère type equations associated with semilinear Neumann boundary conditions. By establishing a priori estimates for second order derivatives, the classical solvability of the Neumann boundary value problem is proved under natural conditions. The techniques build upon the delicate and intricate treatment of the standard Monge-Ampère case by Lions, Trudinger and Urbas in 1986 and the recent barrier constructions and second derivative bounds by Jiang, Trudinger and Yang for the Dirichlet problem. We also consider more general oblique boundary value problems in the strictly regular case.

On the Dirichlet problem for a class of augmented Hessian equations

In this paper, we consider the Dirichlet problem for a new class of augmented Hessian equations. Under sharp assumptions that the matrix function in the augmented Hessian is regular and there exists a smooth subsolution, we establish global second order derivative estimates for the solutions to the Dirichlet problem in bounded domains. The results extend the corresponding results in the previous paper [11] from the Monge-Ampere type equations to the more general Hessian type equations.

On the Dirichlet problem for Monge-Ampere type equations

In this paper, we prove second derivative estimates together with classical solvability for the Dirichlet problem of certain Monge-Ampere type equations under sharp hypotheses. In particular we assume that the matrix function in the augmented Hessian is regular in the sense used by Trudinger and Wang in their study of global regularity in optimal transportation [28] as well as the existence of a smooth subsolution. The latter hypothesis replaces a barrier condition also used in their work. The applications to optimal transportation and prescribed Jacobian equations are also indicated.
