Interior Hessian Estimates for Semi-convex Solutions of the $\sigma_2/\sigma_1$ Equation with Lipschitz Right-Hand Sides

Let $n\ge2$ and let $u$ be a smooth 2-convex and semi-convex solution of \[ \frac{\sigma _2(D^2u)}{\sigma _1(D^2u)}=f(x). \] We prove an interior Hessian estimate depending on the Lipschitz norm of $f$. The proof combines the integral approach of Chen--Jian--Zhou with the algebraic reduction of the quotient equation to...
