Solvability of equation in divergence form Solvability of equation in divergence form Is(D) the equation of certain functional? Variational Problem Where
Solvability of equation in divergence form The minimizer satisfies (D) only if the set of critical points has zero measure Equivalent norm Then satisfies the following conditions has a unique minimizer and it satisfies
Solvability of equation in non-divergence form It’s a degenerate-elliptic partial differential equation Add a viscosity term to make it uniformly elliptic Stability Result in Viscosity Theory
Solvability of equation in non-divergence form locally uniformly is the unique minimizer of , a “weak solution” of (F) and does not depend on the particular subsequence of The solution of is the unique minimizer of the functional Where and Moreover, are uniformly bounded in for any [Magnanini,Talenti; 2003] The functional uniformly converge to , then
Solvability of equation in non-divergence form satisfies the equation where By De Giorgi theorem, is , thus is .
2D Complex-Valued Eikonal Equation is , thus all the coefficients are estimate is Remark The problem (F) does not always have a unique solution. However, we can always find a particular viscosity solution uniquely by using this viscosity method above
Counter Example • g is a solution of the equation in non-divergence form (F) • g is not a minimizer of J and thus differs from the solution we • get using the viscosity method above
Summary • (F) is degenerate elliptic • There exists a continuous solution to (F) by using viscosity • method • The solution to (F) may not be unique • Elliptic problems require boundary conditions extra boundary conditions needed!
