AbstractLet {\boldsymbol{L}} be a second order uniformly elliptic operator, and consider the equation {\boldsymbol{L}u=f} under the boundary condition {u=0}. We assume data f in generical subspaces of continuous functions {D_{\overline{\omega}}} characterized by a given modulus of continuity{\overline{\omega}(r)}, and show that the second order derivatives of the solution u belong to functional spaces {D_{\widehat{\omega}}}, characterized by a modulus of continuity{\widehat{\omega}(r)} expressed in terms of {\overline{\omega}(r)}. Results are optimal. In some cases, as for Hölder spaces, {D_{\widehat{\omega}}=D_{\overline{\omega}}}. In this case we say that full regularity occurs. In particular, full regularity occurs for the new class of functional spaces {C^{0,\lambda}_{\alpha}(\overline{\Omega})} which includes, as a particular case, the classical Hölder spaces {C^{0,\lambda}(\overline{\Omega})=C^{0,\lambda}_{0}(\overline{\Omega})}. Few words, concerning the possibility of generalizations and applications to non-linear problems, are expended at the end of the introduction and also in the last section.

LetT>1be an integer, and let𝕋=1,2,…,T. We discuss the spectrum of discrete linear second-order eigenvalue problemsΔ2ut-1+λmtut=0, t∈𝕋,  u0=uT+1=0, whereλ≠0is a parameter,m:𝕋→ℝchanges sign andmt≠0on𝕋. At last, as an application of this spectrum result, we show the existence of sign-changing solutions of discrete nonlinear second-order problems by using bifurcate technique.
