Abstract
We prove a sharp partial regularity result for Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian Lipschitz submanifolds in arbitrary smooth almost K\"ahler manifolds: every weak solution of the corresponding equation is smooth away from a relatively closed singular set of Hausdorff dimension at most $n-5$. We show that the estimate is optimal by constructing a nonzero two-homogeneous viscosity solution \[ U\in C^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^5)\setminus C^2(\mathbb{R}^5) \] of the phase-zero special Lagrangian equation, whose level sets on $\mathbb{S}^4$ are the leaves of Cartan's isoparametric foliation. Its gradient graph is a non-flat calibrated cone, real analytic away from the vertex. This also gives the first $C^{1,1}$ but non-$C^2$ solution of the special Lagrangian equation, and shows that the same dimensional estimate is sharp in the case of special Lagrangian graphs.
We prove Liouville rigidity theorems for translation-invariant real and complex Hessian equations in the viscosity sense, where the PDE is encoded by an admissible set $\mathcal{A}$. The main structural notion is Liouville admissibility, a recursive geometric condition requiring each quotient set to be either boundary...
We study the quasilinear Liouville equation \[ -\Delta_n u=e^u \] on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Our first result shows that, if a solution $u$ satisfies the optimal logarithmic lower bound \[ u(x)\ge -\frac{n^2}{n-1}\log r(x)+o(\log r(x)) \quad \text{as }r(x)\to+\infty, \...
We establish a sharp bound on the Hausdorff dimension of the non-branch singular set of branched stable minimal immersed hypersurfaces whose singular sets have locally finite $\mathcal H^{n-2}$-measure: the non-branch singular set is empty when $n=2$, discrete when $n=3$, and has Hausdorff dimension at most $n-3$ when...
We prove a third-order derivative estimate for convex solutions to the real Monge-Amp\`ere equation ${\rm det}\,{\rm Hess}(u) = 1$ on an open set in $\mathbb{R}^{2m}$ under the additional assumption that ${\rm Hess}(u)$ lies in ${\rm Sp}(2m,\mathbb{R})$ at every point. Our method is a geometric interpretation and exten...
We develop a pluripotential approach to complex Hessian equations on compact Hermitian manifolds. In this setting, the lack of closedness of the background metric introduces torsion terms that prevent a direct extension of the K\"ahler theory. Our main result is a uniform $L^\infty$ estimate for bounded $\omega$-$m$-su...
We prove a sharp nonlinear version of the celebrated Li-Yau inequality for positive solutions of the normalized parabolic $p$-Laplacian equation $u_t = \Delta u + (p-2)|\nabla u|^{-2}\nabla^2u(\nabla u,\nabla u)$, $1<p<\infty$, on a closed Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, the equation being interpr...
