Abstract:In this paper, a new method is represented to investigate boundary W 2,p estimates for elliptic equations, which is, roughly speaking, to derive boundary W 2,p estimates from interior W 2,p estimates by Whitney decomposition. Using it, W 2,p estimates on C 1,α domains are obtained for nondivergence form linear elliptic equations and further more, fully nonlinear elliptic equations are also considered.
“…The Liouville theorem on cones can be deduced with the aid of the boundary pointwise regularity (see [13]). The boundary pointwise regularity has been employed in the establishment of the global W 2,p regularity on a C 1,α domain for an appropriate 0 < α < 1 (see [11]).…”
In this paper, we prove boundary pointwise C k,α regularity for any k ≥ 1 for fully nonlinear parabolic equations. As an application, we give a direct and short proof of the higher regularity of the free boundaries in obstacle-type problems.
