Calderón-Zygmund estimates for parabolic systems with $p$-growth and non-divergence data

We obtain Calderón--Zygmund estimates for weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems with polynomial $p$-growth and the right-hand side in non-divergence form. Our approach does not require differentiability of the vector field with respect to the gradient variable and provides a unified treatment of both the singular and degenerate regimes. In particular, we establish local higher-integrability estimates for the gradient of the solution under appropriate dependency on the integrability of the right-hand side.

Calderón-Zygmund estimates for parabolic $p$-Laplacian systems with non-divergence form right-hand sides

We establish local Calderón-Zygmund type estimates for weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems with $p$-growth and VMO coefficients. In particular, we prove that if the right-hand side belongs locally to $L^{μs}$, where the exponent $μ$ depends explicitly on $p$, $N$, and a prescribed target exponent $s>p$, then the spatial gradient of the solution enjoys improved integrability $Du \in L^s_{\rm{loc}}$. The result provides a sharp transfer of integrability from the data to the gradient, consistent with the natural parabolic scaling, and recovers the optimal exponents in the linear case $p=2$. The proof combines intrinsic scaling techniques with a Calderón-Zygmund type iteration scheme.

$C^1$-regularity for degenerate diffusion equations

We prove that any solution of a degenerate elliptic PDE is of class $C^1$, provided the inverse of the equation's degeneracy law satisfies an integrability criterium, viz. $σ^{-1} \in L^1\left (\frac{1}λ {\bf d}λ\right )$. The proof is based upon the construction of a sequence of converging tangent hyperplanes that approximate $u(x)$, near $x_0$, by an error of order $\text{o}(|x-x_0|)$. Explicit control of such hyperplanes is carried over through the construction, yielding universal estimates upon the ${C}^1$--regularity of solutions. Among the main new ingredients required in the proof, we develop an alternative recursive algorithm for the renormalization of approximating solutions. This new method is based on a technique tailored to prevent the sequence of degeneracy laws constructed through the process from being, itself, degenerate.
