Abstract: In this paper we extend the interior regularity results for stable solutions in [Cabr'{e}, Figalli, Ros-Oton, and Serra, Acta Math. 224 (2020)] to operators with variable coefficients. We show that stable solutions to the semilinear elliptic equation $a_{ij}(x)u_{ij}+b_i(x)u_i+f(u)=0$ are H"{o}lder continuous in the optimal range of dimensions $nleq9$. Our bounds are independent of the nonlinearity $fin{C}^1$, which we assume to be non-negative. The main achievement of our work is to make the constants in our estimates depend on the $C^1$ norm of $a_{ij}$ and the $C^0$ norm of $b_i$, instead of their $C^2$ and $C^1$ norms, respectively, which arise in a first approach to the computations.
