Interior Hessian estimates for Hessian quotient equations in dimension three

Heming Jiao, Zhenan Sui

Abstract

In this paper, we establish the interior Hessian estimates for $2$-convex solutions to $\frac{σ_2}{σ_1} (D^2 u) = ψ(x,u)$ in dimension three. In higher dimensions ($n \geq 4$), we prove the interior Hessian estimates for semi-convex solutions. We provide a new method to prove the doubling inequality for smooth solutions in dimensions three and four. In higher dimensions ($n\geq 5$) the doubling inequality is proved under an additional dynamic semi-convexity condition which is the same to that in \cite{SY2025}. The method also applies to the equation $σ_2 (D^2 u) = ψ(x, u, \nabla u)$.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $u \in C^4 (B_1)$ be a $2$-convex solution to the equation Hessian in $B_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ satisfying $\|u\|_{C^1(B_1(0))} \leq M < \infty$. Then where $C$ is a positive constant depending only on $\|\psi\|_{C^{1,1}}$, $\|\frac{1}{\psi}\|_{L^\infty}$ and $\|u\|_{C^1 (B_1(0))}$.
