Abstract: We are concerned with the Dirichlet problem for a class of Hessian type equations. Applying some new methods we are able to establish the C2 estimates for an approximating problem under essentially optimal structure conditions. Based on these estimates, the existence of classical solutions is proved.


This paper deals with the regularity and existence for solutions of the following equation \[ \begin{cases} f(\lambda[D^2u+\gamma\Delta u I])=\phi, \quad\text{in}\;\Omega,\\ u=\varphi\quad\text{on}\;\partial\Omega. \end{cases}\tag{1} \] Here \(\Omega \) is a smooth bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\), \(\gamma> 0\) is a constant, \(I\) is the unit matrix and \(\lambda[D^2u+\gamma\Delta u I]\) denotes the eigenvalues of the matrix \(D^2u+\gamma\Delta u I\). Under assumptions on \(f\), \(\phi\) and \(\varphi\), the authors proved the existence of a smooth solution \(u\in C^{\infty}(\bar{\Omega})\) for (1).
