Global regularity estimates for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations in the whole space.

In this paper we use the Hardy–Littlewoodmaximal functions to obtain the following global BMO estimates f ∈ B M O (R n) ⇒ ∇ u ∈ B M O (R n) for the weak solutions of a class of quasilinear elliptic equations div a ∇ u ∇ u = div f in R n , where B (t) = ∫ 0 t τ a (τ) d τ for t ≥ 0. Meanwhile, we use the iteration-covering procedure to prove that B f ∈ L q (R n) ⇒ B ∇ u ∈ L q (R n) for any q > 1 for the weak solutions of div a ∇ u ∇ u = div a f f in R n. Moreover, we remark that a (t) = t p − 2 (p -Laplace equation) and a (t) = t p − 2 log (1 + t) satisfy the given conditions in this work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
