Abstract: We show that in dimension 3 axial-symmetric viscosity solutions of uniformly elliptic Hessian equations are in fact the classical ones.


The authors discuss the regularity of solutions for Dirichlet problems \(F(D^2u) = 0\) in \(\Omega\), \(u = \varphi\) on \(\partial \Omega\), for \(\Omega\) a smooth bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) (\(n\geq 3\)) and \(\varphi\) continuous on the boundary of \(\Omega\). It is assumed that \(F\) is of class \(C^1\) and it is elliptic (\(D^2u\) is the Hessian of \(u\)); it is also assumed that \(F\) is invariant under the action of the orthogonal group on the space of symmetric matrices \(S^2(\mathbb{R}^n)\), i.e. \(F( ^tO \cdot S \cdot O) = F(S)\) for any \(O\in O(n)\) and any \(S \in S^2(\mathbb{R}^n)\). Under these assumptions it is shown that if the problem presents axial symmetry, then it admits a unique solution (in the classical sense, \(u \in C^2(\Omega) \cap C^{1,\epsilon}(\overline{\Omega})\)).
