Review text

The paper deals with the equation \[ \sigma_l(\lambda(D^2u))=f, \] under nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here \(\sigma_l(\lambda)\) denotes the \(l\)-th elementary symmetric function of \(\lambda=(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n)\) and \(\lambda(D^2u)\) is the eigenvalue of the Hessian matrix \(D^2u\). If \(f\) is nonnegative and bounded and \(f\) as well as the boundary data are continuous, the authors show that the problem has at least one \(l\)-convex multi-valued viscosity solution. If \(f\) is additionally \(C^1\) and bounded away from \(0\), then such a solution is shown to be locally Lipschitz. The proof of the existence result relies on Perron's method, the regularity is derived by employing results from the regularity theory for single-valued solutions.
