regularity of solutions

A new approach to decay estimates. Application to a nonlinear and degenerate parabolic PDE

In this paper we describe a new method to derive different type of decay estimates for solutions of evolution equations which allow to describe the asymptotic behavior of the solutions both in presence or absence of "immediate" regularizing properties. Moreover, we give various examples of applications some of which new and dealing with a class of nonlinear problems with degenerate coercivity.

Regularity and time behavior of the solutions of linear and quasilinear parabolic equations

In this paper we study the regularity, the uniqueness and the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to a class of nonlinear operators in dependence of the summability properties of the datum f and of the initial datum $u_0$. The case of only summable data f and $u_0$ is allowed. We prove that these equations satisfy surprising regularization phenomena. Moreover we prove estimates (depending continuously from the data) that for zero datum f become well known decay (or ultracontractive) estimates.

Uniqueness and estimates for a parabolic equation with L1 data

We investigate on the uniqueness property of the solutions to a parabolic problem with the data and the coefficient of zero order term only summable functions. Despite all this lack of regularity and without using any notion of entropy or renormalized solutions or the property to be a solution obtained by approximations we prove an uniqueness result. Then, we study the behavior in time of the unique solution.

Existence and asymptotic behavior of a parabolic equation with L1 data

We study a parabolic equation with the data and the coefficient of zero order term only summable functions. Despite all this lack of regularity we prove that there exists a solution which becomes immediately bounded. Moreover, we study the asymptotic behavior of this solution in the autonomous case showing that the constructed solution tends to the associate stationary solution.

C1,γ regularity for singular or degenerate fully nonlinear equations and applications

In this note, we prove C1,γ regularity for solutions of some fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations with “superlinear” and “subquadratic” Hamiltonian terms. As an application, we complete the results of Birindelli et al. (ESAIM Control Optim Calc Var, 2019. https://doi.org/10.1051/cocv/2018070) concerning the associated ergodic problem, proving, among other facts, the uniqueness, up to constants, of the ergodic function.
