\(L^{p(\cdot)}\)-regularity of Hessian for nondivergence parabolic and elliptic equations with measurable coefficients (Q2308269)

The paper is devoted to the $L^{p(\cdot)}$-estimates of Hessian for nondivergence type parabolic and elliptic equations $$ u_t(x,t) - a_{ij}(x,t) D_{ij} u(x,t) = f(x,t), \quad (x, t) \in \Omega_T ; $$ and $$ a_{ij}(x) D_{ij} u(x) = f(x), \quad (x, t) \in \Omega $$ where $\Omega$ is bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n \geq 2$, $\Omega_T = \Omega \times (0,T) \subset \mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}$ for $T \in (0, \infty)$, where $i, j = 1, 2, \dots, n$. The matrix of the coefficients of the highest order derivatives $A=( a_{ij} )_{i,j =1, \ldots, n} $ is a symmetric measurable $n \times n$ matrix and satisfies, respectively, the parabolic/elliptic uniformly condition. The coefficients are measurable in one of spatial variables and have small BMO seminorms with respect to other variables. The order $p(\cdot)$ is not a constant function, it is a measurable function that satisfies a log-Hölder continuous. The authors establish an interior estimate in the scale of variable exponent Lebesgue spaces for the strong solutions to parabolic equation via the so-called large-\(M\)-inequality principle. Moreover, they prove the similar result for elliptic equation, that is $$ u_t, D^2 u \in L^{p(x,t)}_{loc} (\Omega_T) \text{ and } D^2 u \in L^{p(x)}_{loc} (\Omega). $$
