A NOTE ON ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS WITH BMO COEFFICIENTS: REGULARITY THEORY


Luigi D’Onofrio

Abstract: In this note we investigate the regularity theory for weak solutions of second-order elliptic partial differential equations whose coefficients belong to the space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO). The main contribution of this work is to establish that weak solutions possess second derivatives in appropriate Lq spaces. Our techniques combine harmonic analysis, variational methods, and delicate perturbation estimates.

Keywords: elliptic partial differential equations, BMO coefficients, regularity theory, good-λ inequality, second derivative estimates.
