AbstractWe consider the nonlinear elliptic equation with quadratic convection $$ -\Delta u + g(u) |\nabla u|^2=\lambda f(u) $$ - Δ u + g ( u ) | ∇ u | 2 = λ f ( u ) in a smooth bounded domain $$ \Omega \subset {\mathbb {R}}^N $$ Ω ⊂ R N ($$ N \ge 3$$ N ≥ 3 ) with zero Dirichlet boundary condition. Here, $$ \lambda $$ λ is a positive parameter, $$ f:[0, \infty ):(0\infty ) $$ f : [ 0 , ∞ ) : ( 0 ∞ ) is a strictly increasing function of class $$C^1$$ C 1 , and g is a continuous positive decreasing function in $$ (0, \infty ) $$ ( 0 , ∞ ) and integrable in a neighborhood of zero. Under natural hypotheses on the nonlinearities f and g, we provide some new regularity results for the extremal solution $$u^*$$ u ∗ . A feature of this paper is that our main contributions require neither the convexity (even at infinity) of the function $$ h(t)=f(t)e^{-\int _0^t g(s)ds}$$ h ( t ) = f ( t ) e - ∫ 0 t g ( s ) d s , nor that the functions $$ gh/h'$$ g h / h ′ or $$ h'' h/h'^2$$ h ′ ′ h / h ′ 2 admit a limit at infinity.

In this paper, we establish global Sobolev a priori estimates for [Formula: see text]-viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic equations as follows: [Formula: see text] by considering minimal integrability condition on the data, i.e. [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and a regular domain [Formula: see text], and relaxed structural assumptions (weaker than convexity) on the governing operator. Our approach makes use of techniques from geometric tangential analysis, which consists in transporting “fine” regularity estimates from a limiting operator, the Recession profile, associated to [Formula: see text] to the original operator via compactness methods. We devote special attention to the borderline case, i.e. when [Formula: see text]. In such a scenery, we show that solutions admit [Formula: see text] type estimates for their second derivatives.

Let (M,g) be a smooth compact Riemannian n-manifold, n ≥ 4, and h be a Holdër continuous function on M. We prove multiplicity of changing sign solutions for equations like Δg u + hu = |u|2* - 2 u, where Δg is the Laplace–Beltrami operator and 2* = 2n/(n - 2) is critical from the Sobolev viewpoint.

We consider the problem Δu = λf(u) in Ω, u(x) tends to +∞ as x approaches ∂Ω. Here, Ω is a bounded smooth domain in RN, N ≥ 1 and λ is a positive parameter. In this paper, we are interested in analysing the role of the sign changes of the function f in the number of solutions of this problem. As a consequence of our main result, we find that if Ω is star-shaped and f behaves like f(u) = u(u−a)(u−1) with ½ < a < 1, then there is a solution bigger than 1 for all λ and there exists λ0 > 0 such that, for λ < λ0, there is no positive solution that crosses 1 and, for λ > λ0, at least two solutions that cross 1. The proof is based on a priori estimates, the construction of barriers and topological-degree arguments.
