Abstract: In this paper we prove Holder regularity of the gradient for solutions of Dirichlet problem associate to degenerate elliptic equations, extending the recent result of Imbert and Silvestre. Indeed we obtain regularity up to the boundary and when the equation has lower order terms.The proof follows their scheme but requires new tools and new ideas. In particular we give some a priori Lipschitz and H"older estimates in the presence of boundary condition on one part of the boundary.


In the very interesting paper under review, the authors prove Hölder continuity up to the boundary for the gradient of solutions to some fully-nonlinear, degenerate elliptic equations, with degeneracy coming from the gradient. Precisely, let \(u\) be a viscosity solution of the Dirichlet problem NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \begin{cases} |\nabla u|^\alpha \big( F(D^2u)+h(u)\cdot \nabla u\big)=f & \text{in}\;\Omega,\\ u=\varphi & \text{on}\;\partial\Omega, \end{cases} NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N\) is a bounded \(C^2\)-smooth domain, \(\alpha\geq0,\) \(F\) is uniformly elliptic, \(h,f\in C(\overline{\Omega})\) and \(\varphi\in C^{1,\beta_0}(\partial\Omega).\) The main result of the paper asserts existence of an exponent \(\beta,\) depending on the data of the problem, and a constant \(C=C(\beta)\) such that NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \|u\|_{C^{1,\beta}(\overline{\Omega})}\leq C \left( \|u\|_{L^{\infty}({\Omega})}+ \|\varphi\|_{C^{1,\beta_0}({\partial\Omega})}+ \|f\|_{L^{\infty}({\Omega})}^{\frac{1}{1+\alpha}} \right).
