Abstract

Let Ω ⊂ Rn be a bounded convex domain with n≥ 2 . Suppose that A is uniformly elliptic and belongs to W1,n when n≥ 3 or W1,q for some q> 2 when n= 2 . For 1 < p< ∞ , we establish a global second-order regularity estimate ‖D[|Du|p-2Du]‖L2(Ω)+‖D[⟨ADu,Du⟩p-22ADu]‖L2(Ω)≤C‖f‖L2(Ω) for the inhomogeneous p-Laplace type equation -div(⟨ADu,Du⟩p-22ADu)=f in Ω with Dirichlet or Neumann homogeneous boundary condition. Similar result was also established for certain bounded Lipschitz domains whose boundary is weakly second-order differentiable and satisfies some smallness assumptions.
