Abstract

In this paper, let $u\in C^4(B_{10})$ with $D^2u\geq -KI$ define a $2$-admissible graph $M=\{(x,u(x)):x\in B_{10}\}\subset\R^{n+1}$ satisfying \[ \sigma_2(\kappa[u])=f(x). \] We prove an interior curvature estimate depending on the Lipschitz norm of the right-hand sides. The proof combines a shifted Jacobi inequality for \(b=\log(H+J_0)\), a parallel hypersurface transformation that makes the Newton tensor uniformly elliptic and local boundedness estimate then reduces the pointwise bound to a weighted $L^1$ estimate, which is completed using the Jacobi energy inequality and integration by parts.

Interior Hessian Estimates for Semi-convex Solutions of the $\sigma_2/\sigma_1$ Equation with Lipschitz Right-Hand Sides

Let $n\ge2$ and let $u$ be a smooth 2-convex and semi-convex solution of \[ \frac{\sigma _2(D^2u)}{\sigma _1(D^2u)}=f(x). \] We prove an interior Hessian estimate depending on the Lipschitz norm of $f$. The proof combines the integral approach of Chen--Jian--Zhou with the algebraic reduction of the quotient equation to...

Maximal Regularity and Existence for Superquadratic Parabolic Hamilton--Jacobi Equations: The Endpoint case

We establish interior maximal $L^{q_c}$-regularity for bounded strong solutions of $u_t-\Delta u+|Du|^\gamma=f$ in $\mathbb{T}^d\times(0,T)$, where $d\geq 2$, $\gamma>2$, and $q_c=(d+2)(\gamma-1)/\gamma$. The estimates are uniform for uniformly bounded families of solutions whose source terms range over a bounded, unif...

Global Curvature Estimates for $\sigma_k$ Curvature Equations with $k\geq n/2$

We establish a new concavity inequality for the elementary symmetric function \(\sigma_k\), which controls the spectral quadratic form arising from the second variation of \(\log\lambda_{\max}\). The proof is based on an easy--hard decomposition of the spectral variables. The easy region is treated using an optimal con...

Convex functions with symplectic Hessian

We prove a third-order derivative estimate for convex solutions to the real Monge-Amp\`ere equation ${\rm det}\,{\rm Hess}(u) = 1$ on an open set in $\mathbb{R}^{2m}$ under the additional assumption that ${\rm Hess}(u)$ lies in ${\rm Sp}(2m,\mathbb{R})$ at every point. Our method is a geometric interpretation and exten...

$C^{1, α}$-regularity for solutions of degenerate/singular fully nonlinear parabolic equations

We establish the interior $C^{1,α}$-estimate for viscosity solutions of degenerate/singular fully nonlinear parabolic equations $$u_t = |Du|^γF(D^2u) + f.$$ For this purpose, we prove the well-posedness of the regularized Dirichlet problem \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} u_t&=(1+|Du|^2)^{γ/2}F(D^2u) &&\text{i...

Hamilton's gradient estimates and Liouville theorems for $u_{t}=\Delta u^{m}+au\log u+bu$ on Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we apply Nash-Moser iteration and Saloff-Coste's Sobolev inequalities to derive gradient estimates for positive solutions to a class of nonlinear parabolic equations of the form \begin{equation*} u_{t}=\Delta u^{m}+a(x, t)u\log u+b(x, t)u, \quad 1-\frac{2}{n}<m<1 \quad \text{or}\quad 1<m<1+\frac{1}{1+\sq...
