Abstract

We establish a Pogorelov type interior $C^2$ estimate for the real twisted Monge-Ampere equation without assuming uniform ellipticity. This equation is fully nonlinear and elliptic, but is neither concave nor a function of the eigenvalues of the Hessian, so the standard techniques for interior second-derivative estimates do not directly apply. Building on the partial Legendre transform formulation of Streets and Warren, we derive a differential identity for the associated positive-definite matrix $W(D^2u)$ and use some linear algebra to control the third-order terms arising in the maximum principle argument. As an application, we prove a Liouville theorem for entire split convex solutions with quadratic growth, extending the rigidity theorem of Streets and Warren by replacing their uniform ellipticity hypothesis with suitable quadratic growth assumptions.

Liouville-type theorems and universal estimates for semilinear elliptic equations involving the product of the function and its gradient

In this paper, we study local and global properties of positive solutions to the equation $-\Delta u=u^p|\nabla u|^q$ in a domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb R^N$, where $p$ and $q$ are parameters. We introduce a linear operator to construct the differential inequality to obtain gradient estimates, and further establish Liouv...

Parabolic Monge-Amp\`ere equations on a family of Calabi-Yau manifolds

We prove a uniform $L^\infty$-estimate for the parabolic Monge--Amp\`ere equation under uniform H\"ormander-Tian type estimates with respect to the initial and prescribed measures. We apply this estimate to rescaled K\"ahler--Ricci flows on a family of polarized Calabi--Yau manifolds over the punctured disk. An interpo...

Stability of the Riesz-type inequalities under gluing

We establish stability principles under compact gluing for the reverse square-root inequality and the Riesz transform. Below a common Sobolev dimension, the reverse estimate passes from finitely many model manifolds to their connected sum. A boundary-compatible Poisson parametrix also proves the Neumann reverse inequal...

P\'olya's conjecture for Neumann eigenvalues of annuli

We prove strict P\'olya inequalities for every positive Neumann eigenvalue of every Euclidean annulus. The proof preserves the exact Weyl area term through a radial action identity and combines variational bounds with uniform Bessel-phase and angular-sum estimates. Explicit polynomial positivity arguments and angular-l...

Fractional elementary symmetric functions and Hessian estimates in the plane

We prove an endpoint Pucci maximum principle for domains in $\mathbb R^2$, formulated using a generalization of elementary symmetric polynomials to noninteger orders. As a result, we sharpen an earlier result of Astala, Iwaniec and Martin, and deduce a new Sobolev inequality for $q$-Hessians where $1<q<2$. The fraction...

Harnack Inequality for Parabolic Fractional $p$-Laplace Equations

We establish an intrinsic Harnack inequality with an optimal tail term for weak solutions of parabolic fractional $p$-Laplace equations with $p>2$ and $s\in(0,1)$ whose kernels are symmetric, measurable, and comparable to $|x-y|^{-n-sp}$. It constitutes the nonlocal analogue of the intrinsic Harnack inequality of DiBen...
